as Leader of the House from the beginning of 2012.
In considering this request it maybe useful to consider the recent

On behalf of Hon Gerry Brownlee thank you for your email. Your
correspondence has been noted and will be recorded.
All correspondence, including email, is routed through our mail tracking

“behind-the-scenes” efforts of the Minister’s staff in responding to

anticipate.
The Minister considers all correspondence to be important and your
comments will be noted.
Kind regards
The Office of Hon Gerry Brownlee

I am appealing this, because I find it hard to believe that it was "necessary" to withold every single title of a report that Gerry has received at Leader of the House in 2012 to preserve secrecy of the intended legislative programme.
