Dear M J

 

Thank you for your email in which you submitted an Official Information
Act request as follows:

 

“The total number of communications (including emails, letters, phone
calls, and any other correspondence) received by the Associate Minister of
Education regarding complaints, concerns, or objections about:

- Te Reo Māori language instruction or use in schools and learning
environments

- Māori concepts, perspectives, or content in curriculum or educational
settings

 

Please provide this information for the period since the Minister took
office.

If possible, please break down the numbers by:

- Type of communication (email, letter, phone call, etc.)

- Month or quarter received

- General nature of the complaint (if categorized)"

 

Attempting to provide the information in scope of your request would
involve a substantial amount of collation and research. We are therefore
inviting you to refine or amend your request to enable us to respond.

 

If you are not willing to reduce the scope of your request, we may have to
consider refusing your request under section 18(f) of the OIA, which
applies where the information cannot be made without substantial collation
or research.

 

Please respond to this email as soon as possible so that we can provide
you with a timely response.

 

Kind regards

 

 

Office of Hon David Seymour
