How many permanent jobs have been taken up by Warehouse 'trainees'?
Rex Landy (Account suspended) made this Official Information request to Ministry of Social Development
The request was partially successful.
From: Rex Landy (Account suspended)
Dear Ministry of Social Development,
I'd like to know a couple of things about your programme with The Warehouse please.
1. How many candidates have you paid the $455+GST for to attend 'work experience' at The Warehouse since the scheme started?
2. How many people who have attended the 'work experience experience' at The Warehouse are now in permanent jobs as a direct result of their attendance at this initiative?
3. Do MSD clients have a choice to attend this 'free work for The Warehouse' scheme, or is it entirely voluntary?
Yours faithfully,
R Landy

Dear OIA_Requests (MSD),
Thank you for your reply.
It comes as no surprise that you do not keep records of these initiatives: that way you can claim to not know when pressed about what a rort it is. It certainly is an eye-opener.
Yours sincerely,
Rex Landy
