Dear Susan

Your request has been considered under the Official Information Act (the Act).

Your information request as it currently stands is broad in scope and which would require substantial research.

As the information cannot be obtained without a significant amount of collation and research, your request as it stands would likely be declined under section 18(f) of the Act.

Before making a decision on your request, I would like to invite you to consider refining the scope. For example, please advise whether there is a particular area you are interested in, i.e. complaints about teachers, historic claims.

To refine your request please email [email address].

Kind regards.

Charmaine McAra | Advisor | Government Executive and Ministerial Services

Dear Susan

 

I am writing to you in regards your email of 6 August 2018, requesting the
following information:

 

·        I would like to know how many settlements have been reached by
the Ministry of Education with members of the public (including teachers)
as a result of complaints made, how much reparation has been paid, and how
many have included non-disclosure agreements preventing discussion of
details. I would like to have data on this for each year from 2007 to
2017.

 

On 14 August 2018 we emailed you, asking you to refine your request to
enable us to provide you with a substantive response.

 

To date we have not received a reply. If no response if received by 1
September 2018 and in order to meet our obligations under the Official
Information Act, your request will be refused under section 18(f) of the
Act as the information you have requested cannot be made available without
substantial collation and research.

 

You are welcome to make a new request which will be treated accordingly.
