Dear Ministry of Social Development,

Please provide me with the following information:

1. A copy or copies of the legislation - laws and regulations - relevant to the Unsupported Child Benefit.

2. A copy or copies of the policies, procedures, rules, guidelines, etc. - all non-laws and non-regulations requested above in other words - relevant to the Unsupported Child Benefit.

3. A copy or copies of the processes that must be used to evaluate and approve or decline a second Unsupported Child Benefit application when the first Unsupported Child Benefit application was approved and payments made for more than 2 years, and the child left the applicant's home but returned more than 1 year later causing a stoppage of the payments to be requested by the applicant then a second application to be made and submitted to WINZ ... with all of the original application personal and other information remaining unchanged in the interim period other than the child's age. (What I am needing here is a copy or copies of a directive or other sort of instruction to WINZ staff how they are required to process a second Unsupported Child Benefit application when they already have all of the relevant information on record from a first Unsupported Child Benefit application).

Yours faithfully,

M.R.M.
