Dear Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade,

I would like to understand MFAT's processes associated with making diplomatic appointments, including (by way of example) Ambassadors, High Commissioners and Head of Mission.

I'd therefore like to request any policy, process, guidance or other documents held by MFAT that set out the process for appointing such positions.

Could I also please request a copy of diplomatic appointments made in the last twelve months and an understanding of the process for appointment.

Yours faithfully,

Alan Riley
