Chris Bishop MP saying "Hope so" in response to questions about sacking public servants

Harris Leigh made this Official Information request to Public Service Commission

The request was refused by Public Service Commission.

From: Harris Leigh

Dear Public Service Commission,

On 3 September 2023, National Party housing spokesperson, Chris Bishop MP was reported as saying “Hope so” when asked if there will be job losses at Kainga Ora following the formation of a National-led Government after this year's elections.

Under the OIA I seek copies of any information held by the PSC relating to these comments.

Without limitation of the above I specifically seek information about any advice you have provided to Kainga Ora or HUD relating to how they should prepare for redundancies in the case of a potential change of government in a manner that is consistent with good faith requirements of the Employment Relations Act and/or how to avoid concerns about predetermination based on Mr Bishop's comments.

Yours faithfully,

Harris Leigh
