Dear Ministry of Social Development,

 

I am writing to obtain data with regards to how many current practising
Social Workers at Child Youth and Family Services are registered with the
Social Work Registration Board.

Thats is how many are registered and how many are not. This can be
provided in percentage terms also.

I would also like to request the information as to when a social worker is
not registered whether they are restricted in the work they are able to
conduct as opposed to a registered social worker.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Joanne MacLennan

Dear Ms McLennan

On 24 November 2016 you emailed the Ministry requesting, under the
Official Information Act 1982, the following information:

·         How many current practising Social Workers at Child Youth and
Family Services are registered with the Social Work Registration Board?

 

·         How many are registered and how many are not. This can be
provided in percentage terms also.

 

·         I would also like to request the information as to when a social
