We refer to your official information request dated 27 September 2022 for information related to the classification system review.

The Official Information Act 1982 requires that we advise you of our decision on your request no later than 20 working days after the day that we received your request. Unfortunately, it will not be possible to meet that time limit and we are, therefore, writing to notify you of an extension of the time to make our decision, to 23 November 2022.

This extension is necessary because consultations required to make a decision on your request are such that a proper response cannot reasonably be made within the original time limit.

You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of this decision. Information about how to make a complaint is available at www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802 602.

Subject: Official Information request - Classification system review

Dear Office of Andrew Little,

I would like to make a request for information held by the minister in his role as minister responsible for the NZSIS.

I would like to make a request for information relating to the recent refresh of the classification system and the release of the New Zealand Government Information Security Classification System Policy 2022 by the NZSIS.

ONE: I would like to request a copy of the briefing the minister received to advise him of the outcome of NZSIS’s recent review of the classification system and their proposals for updating the classification system.

TWO: The NZSIS Protective Security Requirements website refers to a proposal to simplify the classification system which did not receive Cabinet approval:

“We recognize that simplifying the System was identified as a high priority by all of the agencies involved in the review project in 2019 and 2020. That review found that simplifying the system will require significant resources across government to undertake. We did not receive approval from Cabinet to commit those resources at this time.”

Quote on this webpage:

https://protectivesecurity.govt.nz/resou...

I would like to request a copy of all Cabinet material associated with the update of the classification system, including the proposal referred to above which did not receive Cabinet approval.

Yours faithfully,
Scott
