Dear Ministry for Women,

I noted, Fifth year in a row of equal gender representation on public sector boards
https://www.women.govt.nz/news/fifth-yea...

In your report, you stated the ethnic breakdown of women board chairs as follows:
• 97 were New Zealand European or European (72.9%)
• 39 were Mâori (29.3%)
• 8 were Pacific (6.0%)
• 4 were Asian (3.0%)

Could you please specify the names of the boards where the 39 Mâori, 8 Pacific, and 4 Asian women served as board chairs?

Yours faithfully,

john luke
