Dear Ministry of Social Development,

I would like to request information regarding:

The purpose of randomly selecting recipients of student allowance for evidence of income during a specific week.

The date of the last review of this process of 'randomly selecting recipients of student allowance for evidence of income during a specific week' and whether alternative methods of acquiring this information were examined.

The process by which random selection occurs.

Any policies, training materials or guidlines for staff on how to deal with submitted evidence that does not fit the current framework, i.e. people paid monthly or sporadically.

Yours faithfully,

Aaron Chang
