Dear Ministry of Education,

I see there is a risk assessment "11NOVChecklistRiskAssessmentOpeningToAllStudentsAL3.docx"
announced in your 11 Nov 2021 MoE bulletin which was saved here
https://assets.education.govt.nz/public/...
The bulletin said
"In today’s bulletin, we have additional information on managing employment processes after next Monday 15 November and the risk assessment checklist we promised yesterday. Although the checklist allows for flexibility, I’d like to reassure you that if you have endeavoured to align your planning with it, you can be confident you are following public health advice and fulfilling your duties under the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015."

Would you kindly share a copy of this document?

Yours faithfully,

Erika Whittome
