Subject: Enquiry about Post-Secondary Student Summer Internship Programme
Dear Sir/Madam
I am writing to seek information about the government's Post-Secondary Student Summer Internship Programme. As a university teacher who cares about students' professional development, I think the government should offer more summer internships to university students in response to the economic recession caused by Covid-19 pandemic. Please answer the following questions under the Code on Access to Information.
1) Please provide a list of government departments and bureaus that offer summer internships under the programme in 2019 and 2020.
2) Please provide a copy of the report on the programme if available.
3) Please provide a list of summer internship positions available from each bureau and department if such information is available. If not, please let me know and I'll email the respective departments and bureaus for such information.
4) Please provide the number of applications received for each internship position in question 3 if such information is available. If not, please let me know and I'll email the respective departments and bureaus for such information.
Please also notice the following statement about our expectations of how this request should be handled.
While we appreciate the government’s efforts to maintain transparency and accountability under the Code on Access to Information, we also notice considerable variation among different departments and bureaux in their responses to our Code on Access to Information applications. We would appreciate it if your department/bureau could maintain professional standards when answering our inquiries. Specifically, we expect answers to each and every one of our questions separately rather than an answer without clearly indicating which questions were addressed. In case of referencing to websites or documents, we need the specific paragraphs in the source texts that are relevant to our questions to be highlighted. If no information is available regarding some of our questions, please indicate that is the case explicitly so we can follow up properly. We will definitely ask our case to be reviewed by a more senior official in your department/bureau if our request is not properly handled. If it is believed that other department/bureau may possess information we request, please feel free to forward the request including our personal information.
Yours sincerely
