Security clearances
Catherine Batt made this Official Information request to Ministry for Primary Industries
The request was successful.
From: Catherine Batt
Dear Ministry for Primary Industries,
Why does an applicant to be a fisheries officer need to be able to obtain a security
clearance? For example, job reference MPI15/1159035.
Security clearances are for people who need regular access to
national security information. Does being an fisheries officer require
regular access to national security information?
Yours faithfully,
Catherine Batt
