Kia ora Michael

Minister Seymour's Office transferred your request to the Ministry of Education on 22 May 2024. Due to an administrative error, the transfer was not logged in the Ministry's IT/workflow system.

Your request has now been logged, and the Ministry will work to fulfil your request as soon as possible.

We apologise for the inconvenience and the delay this has caused.
