Official Information Act request: [Luke] King Charles III coronation medal
Thank you for your Official Information Act request received on 3 January 2023. You
requested:
“Will the Government release a separate King Charles III’s coronation medal
for New Zealanders.
In an FYI request in 2021, it was said that the decision as to whether New
Zealand would issue its own medal is for the Prime Minister. So what is the
Prime Minister's take on this matter”
The Prime Minister Rt Hon Chris Hipkins has not yet considered this matter. Once a
decision has been reached, we will write to you again to let you know.
You have the right to ask the Ombudsman to investigate and review my decision under
section 28(3) of the Act.
We do not intend to publish this response on the Department of the Prime Minister and
Cabinet’s website.
Nāku noa, nā
