Communications on Stefan Sunde & EY

John Luke made this Official Information request to Tama Potaka

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

From: John Luke

Dear Minister,

I am requesting:

all correspondence with Stefan Sunde (Sunde is a member of the National party board of directors)
all correspondence mentioning Stefan Sunde or "Stefan"

Plus, all correspondence about EY (Ernst & Young or Ernst and Young) including:
any mention of their 'scandal'
'secret drinking club'
'PR nightmare'
'sexual harassment'

The above mentioned terms are related to recent articles on EY and their 'probe' into misconduct. The probe investigated numerous staff members, with resignations as a result.

Sunde has worked at EY for four years, covering the period being investigated.

He leaves EY in July, with no job other job to step into, and has requested people contact him with help for a new role. Please refer to LinkedIn post: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/stefan-su...

His post has no 'likes' from directors or partners, in what one can assume is an attempt to distance themselves and not be affiliated him Sunde.

Regards.
John Luke
