Kia ora Erika Whittome,
 
On behalf of the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment I
acknowledge your email of 25/11/2025 requesting, under the Official
Information Act 1982, the following:
 
This is a request to the Employment Relations Authority which comes under
MBIE.

I refer to the Crown Law response here
https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlo...

This document on page 64 mentions four members of the ERA in this advice
who are:
Claire English
Shane Kinley (I understand Mr Kinley is not a member at present).
Sarah Blick
and Andrew Gane.

Would you please share the 'conflict of interest' statements for these
members?  Specifically any conflicts resulting from the advice from a
previous public role and duties to two different organisations?
 
We will endeavour to respond to your request as soon as possible, and no
later than 23/12/2025, being 20 working days after the day your request
was received. If we are unable to respond to your request by then, we will
notify you of an extension of that timeframe. If you have any enquiries
regarding your request feel free to contact us via email to
[1][MBIE request email].
 
Nāku noa, nā
