Thank you for your email of 23 July 2023, requesting the fol owing information from Te Pūkenga –
New Zealand Institute of Skil s and Technology (Te Pūkenga):
… dates on which either annual leave or leave without pay has been taken by Ziena Jalil since
commencing her full-time role at Te Pūkenga?
This letter provides a formal decision on your request under the Official Information Act 1982 (OIA).
The decision
I am withholding the dates of any leave taken by our Chief of Staff, Ziena Jalil, since her
commencement in the role under section 9(2)(a) of the OIA to protect the privacy of natural persons.
I have considered the public interest in release of this information and do not believe it outweighs
the need to protect the privacy of our Chief of Staff.
You have the right to make a complaint to the Ombudsman under section 28(3) of the OIA if you are
not happy with this response. Information about how to do this is available at
