Joshua Grainger made this Official Information Act request to Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet

From: Joshua Grainger

23 January 2012

Dear Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet,

I would like to request under the Official Information Act the
number of times the Prime Minister has prevented disclosure of
information under s31(a) of the Official Information Act. If
statistics on this are readily available, can I please have all
available records on this going back to the commencement of the Act
broken up by year?

If statistics are not readily available can I please have records
covering either the last 15 requests, or the last year, whichever
is greater?

I would also like to request the details of the last 3 requests
withheld under s31(a) of what exactly was requested, and the reason
certified by the Prime Minister for the withholding of information.

Thank you, and feel free to contact me if you want my request
clarified.

Yours faithfully,

Joshua Grainger
