Tçnâ koe Adam,
This email is a follow up to the response sent to you on 8 August 2023 in
respect of your OIA request NZ On Air received on 10 July 2023.
Given we have not received your response in respect of the proposed
charging options, we are assuming that you have not chosen either option
and do not wish to be charged. In light of this, we have proceeded with
preparing documentation under Option 3 of NZ On Air’s 8 August response.
Please find attached copies of all PIJF funding recommendation papers
submitted to the NZ On Air Staff Investment Committee and Board.
Redactions have been made under Section 9(2)(a) and Section 9(2)(b)(ii) of
the Official Information Act.
Redactions made under Section 9(2)(b)(ii) were made in respect of the
following:
o Employee information (including specific salary amounts for
PIJF-funded roles) or references to employment matters specific to the
applicant
o Information specific to the inner workings of an applicant’s
organisation
o References to pending or future transactions or future business
opportunities
o References to financial arrangements outside of NZ On Air funding
o Proposed new activities, strategies, products or business dealings
(particularly those applications that are still live)
o Proposed, specific topics or stories to be covered as part of the
application (particularly for those applications that are still live)
o Platform/page/social media reach or engagement statistics
o References to any applications that may have been declined or
resubmitted
As noted in our original response, you have the right to refer this
response to the Ombudsman if you are dissatisfied with it.
