Stats NZ’s investigation into allegations that census data was misused during the election campaign has been extended indefinitely. The inquiry, led by investigator Doug Craig of RDC Group, was initially expected to conclude by the end of July.
One day the findings of the investigation will be shared with the police, the Public Service Commission, and the public once completed. Meanwhile, the Public Service Commission is conducting a separate inquiry to determine if government agencies acted appropriately in relation to the allegations.
