MOE personnel exempted from the vaccine mandate
Kathryn Pick made this Official Information request to Ministry of Education
The request was partially successful.
From: Kathryn Pick
Dear Ministry of Education,
I recently requested to know the number of MOE personnel who were exempt from the vaccine mandate in 2021. I received the following information...
Approximately 59% of the approximately 4,352 Ministry employees were covered under the COVID-19 Public Health Response (Vaccinations) Order 2021 when it was in effect. Exemptions could be applied for under clause 9 of the COVID-19 Public Health Response (Vaccinations) Order 2021. Seven Education-related applications were received and processed by the Ministry, with all decisions referred to the Minister for approval. All of these applications were declined.
I now request to know WHO the 41% of exempt MOE personnel were (what their titles and positions in the MOE were), and under what grounds were exemptions granted please.
Yours faithfully,
Kathryn Pick
