May I ask how you called for public nomination and on what platform you have call for public nominations e.g. govt.jobs website. A copy of your ad and pay rate as well. Also, how many applications you have received for each of the role from the public and how many you have received from other nominating agencies such as TPK or Ministry of women etc for your role. How many you have shortlisted and how many you have interviewed. How many vacancies are you looking to fill for this round for each of the role. Would you provide any equipment to the successful candidate (e.g., a laptop, mobile phone, etc.)? Also, what other benefits would they receive besides payment, such as Air NZ Koru membership or other perks?
Yours faithfully,
john luke

Good afternoon John,
Thank you for alerting us to the issue with your response. We have identified that, due to an administrative error, the amendment you made to your request on 14 March was unfortunately not correctly notified through to the team processing your request. The team has now been alerted to the omission and will be processing, with urgency, the part of your request that relates to the Film and Literature Board. We apologise sincerely for the delay you have experienced in this case. We anticipate we will be able to provide response to you by 5 May 2026; however we will respond sooner if possible.
