Subject: Official Information request - Youth Justice policy team
 
Dear Ministry of Justice,
 
I have recently seen that you are recruiting for a senior policy role.  I
was curious to see the name changes of the teams involved in that area, in
particular the change from victims policy team to victims and youth
justice team.
 
Given this, I would like to know:
- when did this name change occur?
- when was it decided that Ministry of Justice would have responsibility
for youth justice?
- what communications occurred with the Oranga Tamariki, Corrections and /
or Public Services Commission in relation to this change?
- why are you recruiting into this area when there are still restructures
(and associated redundancies) happening in other justice sector agencies,
in particular those with responsibility for youth justice?
- why is the closing date for this advertised position so early in light
of those restructures and redundancies?
- why was consideration not given to lifting and shifting staff from other
justice sector agencies with responsibility for youth justice as opposed
to open recruitment?
 
Yours faithfully,
LC Smith
