The purpose of this memorandum is to inform you of the decision to release 2018 Census household crowding statistics early, in order to support the Government’s COVID-19 pandemic response. Stats NZ has received a number of requests for urgent release of household crowding data 2. Household crowding is highly correlated with larger rates of infectious disease transmission, therefore, data on household crowding is essential for understanding the risk of COVID-19 for different subpopulations, particularly Māori and Pacific People, and for use in predictive modelling. 3. Stats NZ has been approached by a number of agencies with requests for household crowding data to be released urgently. These agencies include: . Te Rōpū Whakakaupapa Urutā – National Māori Pandemic Group . National Iwi Chairs Forum Pandemic Response Group . Data Iwi Leaders Group o Developing and testing a real-time mapping tool that helps Iwi target their own Proactivelyresponse to Iwi-Māori in their rohe . Ministry for Pacific Peoples o Directed by the Minister for Pacific Peoples to conduct urgent COVID-19 pandemic- related research, in conjunction with the Ministry of Health, on the significance of household crowding issues among Pacific people . Ministry of Housing and Urban Development o To input household crowding rates for Māori into predictive modelling as part of their COVID-19 response . Department of Public Health, University of Otago o The COVID-19 Public Health Response Strategy Team require data for inputting into individual-based models of epidemic spread. Stats NZ will release household crowding data to support the Government’s COVID-19 pandemic response 4. In response to requests and to support the Government’s COVID-19 pandemic response, Stats NZ will release these statistics early, on Wednesday, 22 April 2020 at 10:45am. 5. Household crowding data from the 2018 Census was originally included in the ‘households and families’ data package, and not scheduled for release until May 2020 – which is not timely enough to assist the Government’s COVID-19 pandemic response. 6. The release will consist of Excel data tables and a media story. The media story will outline Stats NZ’s decision to release the data early and summarise the data. There will be no pre-release briefing for this release. 7. Stats NZ is currently working to inform key users of the decision to release the data early – including those who had requested the data be urgently released. Stats NZ is confident the 2018 Census household crowding data is comparable with previous censuses 8. Household crowding information, broken down by ethnicity and area, is vitally important within the context of the COVID-19 pandemic and response. Stats NZ has regularly released census data on household crowding since the 1996 Census. 9. Stats NZ has been able to expedite work on household crowdingreleased data, and the data is now ready for release. Quality assurance has been carried out using comparisons to the 2013 Census data. While lower response rates will impact on the number of Māori and Pacific peoples included in the household crowding estimates, Stats NZ is confident the data is comparable with previous censuses. 10. The quality ratings of the variables used in the household crowding data are: . Age – very high . Sex – very high . Number of bedrooms – high . Individual role in family – moderate . Count of households – high 11. Any data caveats users should be aware of will be clearly communicated in the release. Next steps 12. Stats NZ will work to inform key users of the early release of this data and prepare relevant release documents. 13. ThisProactively memorandum will be circulated to the ministers copied, to inform them of the early release. .

Liber A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Health Services Organizations and Policy) in The University of Michigan 2020 Doctoral Committee: Professor Scott Greer, Co-Chair Assistant Professor Holly Jarman, Co-Chair Professor Daniel Béland, McGill University Professor Paula Lantz Alex C. Liber [email protected] ORCID iD: 0000-0001-7863-3906 © Alex C. Liber 2020 Dedication For Lindsey and Sophia. I love you both to the ends of the earth and am eternally grateful for your tolerance of this project. ii Acknowledgments To my family – Lindsey, you made the greatest sacrifices that allowed this project to come to fruition. You moved away from your family to Michigan. You allowed me to conduct two months of fieldwork when you were pregnant with our daughter. You helped drafts come together and were a constant sounding board and confidant throughout the long process of writing. This would not have been possible without you. Sophia, Poe, and Jo served as motivation for this project and a distraction from it when each was necessary. Mom, Dad, Chad, Max, Julian, and Olivia, as well as Papa Ernie and Grandma Audrey all, helped build the road that I was able to safely walk down in the pursuit of this doctorate. You served as role models, supports, and friends that I could lean on as I grew into my career and adulthood. Lisa, Tony, and Jessica Suarez stepped up to aid Lindsey and me with childcare amid a move, a career transition, and a pandemic.

  • Schedule of Responsibilities Delegated to Associate Ministers and Parliamentary Under-Secretaries
    Schedule of Responsibilities Delegated to Associate Ministers and Parliamentary Under-Secretaries 14 June 2018 276641v1 This paper is presented to the House, in accordance with the suggestion of the Standing Orders Committee in its Report on the Review of Standing Orders [I. 18A, December 1995]. At page 76 of its report, the Standing Orders Committee recorded its support for oral questions to be asked directly of Associate Ministers who have been formally delegated defined responsibilities by Ministers having primary responsibility for particular portfolios. The Standing Orders Committee proposed that the Leader of the House should table in the House a schedule of such delegations at least annually. The attached schedule has been prepared in the Cabinet Office for this purpose. The schedule also includes responsibilities allocated to Parliamentary Under-Secretaries. Under Standing Orders, Parliamentary Under-Secretaries may only be asked oral questions in the House in the same way that any MP who is not a Minister can be questioned. However, they may answer questions on behalf of the principal Minister in the same way that Associate Ministers can answer. The delegations are also included in the Cabinet Office section of the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet website (http://www.dpmc.govt.nz/cabinet/ministers/delegated), which will be updated from time to time to reflect any substantive amendments to any of the delegated responsibilities. Hon Chris Hipkins Leader of the House June 2018 276641v1 2 Schedule of Responsibilities Delegated to Associate Ministers and Parliamentary Under-Secretaries as at 14 June 2018 Associate Ministers are appointed to provide portfolio Ministers with assistance in carrying out their portfolio responsibilities.

    Rt Hon Jacinda Ardern, Prime Minister Hon Kris Faafoi Hon Stuart Nash Hon Grant Robertson Hon Simon Bridges Hon Paul Goldsmith Hon Todd McClay Parliament Building Wellington, 6160 16 April 2020 Dear Prime Minister, Government Ministers and Opposition Members of Parliament COVID-19 effect on small business leases – call for urgent action to be taken to prevent business closures We refer to our previous letter to each of you dated 2 April 2020. In our letter we wrote: a) calling for urgent action to be taken to prevent business closures; and b) we implored you to address the critical issue of rent relief to all tenants of commercial leases – as many leases do not provide any rent relief. We have had no response from government or the Ministry for Business, Innovation & Employment to our letter and our views do not appear to have been considered in the recent package that was announced yesterday to supposedly assist small to medium-sized businesses. We find this very disappointing. As we said in our letter, we are the peak body representing franchising in NZ. Turnover of the franchising sector represents circa 11% of New Zealand’s GDP. As such franchising is a critical part of the New Zealand economy. And most of the circa 37,000 franchisees in NZ are small businesses – the very people that the government has said need more government support. In our letter we explained to you why rent relief is critical and why we believe urgent action needs to be taken to put cash in the hands of small to medium-sized business owners.
