Looked for, not found
- No verbatim-verified evidence of Rohan O'Neill-Stevens's full education history (Nelson College, UWC Robert Bosch College) — Wikipedia and secondary sources mention it but fetched pages did not yield extractable claims.
- No verified evidence of Rohan O'Neill-Stevens's role as President of the NZ Local Government Youth network — mentioned in IoD article snippet but page did not yield extractable claims.
- No verified evidence of Rohan O'Neill-Stevens's Arts Council Nelson Transition Director role from fetched pages — mentioned in search snippets and Instagram but page content not extractable.
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.
