Subject: Official Information request - Incentives

 

Dear Statistics New Zealand,

 

Currently you have Data Collection Specialists conducting a "Living in
Aotearoa" survey.

 

Can you please provide me the following information:

 

- What are areas selected for this?

- How were these areas selected?

- When is the final 14 days of the field collection phase? of the "Living
in Aotearoa" survey

- What is the expected margin of error for this Survey

- Is there a budget for incentives for stragglers as was offered in the
2023 census?

- How much is this budget?

- If any incentives are going to be offered will they be Rugby Tickets or
Supermarket vouchers? Or is it something else?

- Will these incentives be offered to New Zealanders accross the board or
it just targeted to specific ethnicities

- Were any prosecutions completed under the Data and Statistics Act 2022
for individuals who failed to complete the 2023 Census? If so how many?
and what were the ethnicities of those charged?

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Jason Esler
