Ngā Horopaki Appendix A: Case Studies
Introduction to case studies
In this Appendix, we look at some scenarios that might arise for public sector agencies or staff and provide guidance about the matters that should be considered.
Agency case studies
- Scenario 1: Public sector agency advertising a future vision for New Zealand
- Scenario 2: Advertising by a public sector agency of new products and services
- Scenario 3: Public sector agency receives an information request from its Minister
Staff case studies
- Scenario 4: Staff commenting in the media on the current government’s performance
- Scenario 5: Staff appearing in publicity material that involves politicians
Advertising and publicity – short case studies
- Scenario 6: Social media campaign to publicise community services
- Scenario 7: Correction of misinformation
- Scenario 8: Publicity of future services and benefits
- Scenario 9: Consultation on proposed government policy that is politically controversial
The scenarios are intended to show the range of situations that can occur and the issues that might need to be considered in assessing their seriousness and deciding how to manage them. They are examples, not rules. In reality, sometimes a small difference in context or detail can make a critical difference. Agencies and staff will have to use their own judgement.
