Subject: Official Information request - List of Recipients of Covid-19
Wage Subsidies

 

Dear Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment,

 

Yours faithfully,

 

I am a private tertiary institution lecturer at IPU New Zealand Palmerston
North. I am keen to examine the financial market performance of the
COVID-19 wage subsidy recipients ( only those registered businesses with
employees of more than 20).

 

I intend to compare their financial market performances with those
companies that got jobkeeper subsidies in Australia throughout 2020-2022.

 

I have already obtained the information on Australian companies from the
Australian treasury website. I have come across the COVID-19 wage
subsidies-employer search tool from the following website
[https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlo...,
but it is very time-consuming to search for individual employers.

 

I request you to provide the list of employers (with more than 20
employees).

 

Thank you.

Rashid Ameer
