Looked for, not found

  • Adam Powell's pre-teaching career, formal qualifications beyond LinkedIn snippet ("The Mind Lab"), and specific dates for NZEI Te Riu Roa Auckland Central Branch leadership role could not be verified from public sources beyond the LinkedIn profile (which was inaccessible due to 403 error).
  • No pecuniary interest register entries or company directorships found for Adam Powell (person_id=580072) — consistent with being a candidate rather than a sitting MP.

The agent checked these topics across the allowed public sources but could not find verbatim-quotable evidence. Absence doesn't rule the fact out — it just means no journalist-accessible source covered it at run time.
