Thank you for taking the time to contact Hon Karen Chhour, Minister for
Children, and the Prevention of Family & Sexual Violence.

 

Minister Chhour considers all correspondence important and all emails are
read and considered. As such a large volume is received, it is not
possible to personally reply to all emails and so the following guidelines
apply:

o If your email is for the Minister’s information, or if you have copied
your email to another Minister and/or Member of Parliament who holds
more appropriate portfolio responsibilities, then your correspondence
will be noted.
o Invitations and requests to meet with the Minister will be processed
as soon as possible and a staff member will be in contact in due
course.
o Media queries will be referred to the Minister’s press secretary.
o If you have made a request for official information, then this will be
managed in accordance with the provisions of the Official Information
Act 1982, which may include a transfer to a more relevant Minister or
agency.

Dear P Robins

 

All communication types were reviewed to respond to this request. The
Minister and her staff are aware that ‘official information’ includes any
information they hold in their official capacity, including for example
information held on their personal devices or email accounts.

 

For the avoidance of doubt, this includes information held in the minds of
employees that has not yet been written down, so includes verbal
conversations as well as any form of electronic communication.

 

 

Warm regards

 

| Office of Hon Karen Chhour

Minister for Children | Prevention of Family & Sexual Violence
