Dear Department of Internal Affairs,

I would like to make a request for the following bits of information, where they exist:

- Any and all information regarding the financial status and/or continued viability of the Film and Video Labelling Body (referred to as FVLB hereafter) from 2019 until Present, including but not limited to:
- Any monthly/quarterly/yearly reports that provide a status update on the Film and Video Labelling Body's financial health and/or ability to continue operations
- Any correspondence (email, SMS etc) discussing the "Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern" note included in the FVLB's 2019 and 2020 financial statements, which were prepared by William Buck Audit (NZ) Limited
- Any correspondence (email, SMS etc) noting the apparent absence of the material uncertainty disclaimer from the FVLB's financial statements for 2021 and onward, which is when the DIA funding period appeared to start.
- Any correspondence (email, SMS etc) regarding the decision by the DIA to provide ongoing funding to the FVLB, which began from 2021
- A copy of any contract(s) regarding DIA funding for the FVLB which began from 2021
- Any ministerial briefings prepared for the Minister of Internal Affairs regarding the FVLB's financial health and/or ability to continue operations. For reference, I believe this would have been any briefings for the following ministers across the requested period:
- Tracy Martin (2017 - 2020)
- Jan Tinetti (2020 - 2023)
- Barbara Edmonds (2023)
- Brooke van Velden (2023 - Present)

While I've tried to be pretty specific with the scope of what I'm interested in, I realize that this still may be a large amount of information to request so I'm happy to discuss any further refinements in scope and/or potentially offsetting the cost of labour needed (depending on the cost of course)

Yours faithfully,

Marcus

Dear Department of Internal Affairs,

I was hoping to get confirmation that you've received my OIA about the FVLB?

Yours faithfully,

Marcus
