6. BERL also worked with Te Puni Kokiri. This is a
quote from Phil Coghini, Te Puni Kokiri:
“The Charities Services data is the best source (if not the only source) of financial
information that we have on Māori organisations that are registered charities. Also its site,
is flexible and open to enable anyone with the internet, to access a large chunk of their
database contents , and download into useful formats (e.g. csv or excel) for further data
manipulation and integration.
Te Puni Kōkiri, supplies this information to the Business and Economic Research Institute
(BERL) who uses this information source (amongst others) to help update the Māori asset
base and contribution to GDP statistics.
Also this helps reduce respondent burden, particularly for useful information that is
already accessible in the public domain (Charity Services).
I’ve been an advocate for data re-use and open data where this can be done: cost
effectively and efficiently, to help reduce respondent burden, help improve government
transparency of its services, saving tax payers monies and time, and help reduce
information asymmetry.
I believe the info from Charities Services is an excellent example of data re-use and
releasing open data.”
