From: Letty Smith
Dear Oranga Tamariki—Ministry for Children,
I am curious as to what rules there are around having a small personal or desk fan in work places associated with your organisation.
Are there any rules? What are those rules? Who imposed those rules (for instance, senior leadership team, leaders of a particular site, building owner)? Please provide as much detail as possible.
Please also set out how many sites associated with your organisation, and how many employees normally located at those locations.
Yours faithfully,
Letty Smith
