From: john luke

Dear Ministry for Women,

I noted,2025 stocktake of gender and ethnic diversity on public sector boards and committees (2026)

https://www.women.govt.nz/library/2025-s...

I note that in your report, "Summary of Women’s Representation by Administering Agency" you have listed the number of boards administered by each ministry and department.

To help me understand the underlying data used in the report, could you please provide, under the Official Information Act, the names of all the boards included under each ministry and department?

For example, the report states that the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment administers 44 boards. I am requesting the names of each of those 44 boards, as well as the names of all boards listed under every other ministry and department included in the report which total add up to 396 boards as per page 9 of your report.

Yours faithfully,

john luke

Dear Info,

Please log this as an OIA request.

I also don't think the link is correct. For example, the link states that the Ministry for Primary Industries has 16 boards, whereas your report states that it has 13 boards.
Please ensure the information provided is accurate and up to date. Thank you.

Yours sincerely,

john luke
