Adam M made this Official Information request to Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet

This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for Adam M to read recent responses and update the status.

From: Adam M

Dear Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet,

This is a request to you and the wider Prime Minister’s Office and Minister of Women.

On 9 Jan 2024, the Private Secretary to Nicola Grigg stated online that during Nicola’s parental leave, she is Acting Private Secretary to Simon Watts. (photo attached: https://imgur.com/a/VTjoEoZ)

Questions:
- is the Women’s portfolio in hibernation during the Minister’s leave? As suggested by her staff taking acting roles in other portfolios during her leave period.

Please provide all communications, including minutes from meetings, where the portfolio/s of Nicola are discussed for the period during her leave. Including suggestions it slows down during this period. This includes staff communications about their acting positions or secondments elsewhere during her leave, or their “workload” etc during the period.

- how many Women’s portfolio/Nicola Grigg staff are taking acting roles in other portfolios during the leave period?

- is the portfolio looked after by another minister during this period? If so, are Nicola’s staff seconded to that acting minister during this period.

Yours faithfully,
Adam M
