Dear Correspondent

On behalf of Hon Ron Mark, thank you for your email.

Please note information about meetings related to the Ministers’
portfolios will be proactively released (this does not include personal or
constituency matters). For each meeting in scope, the summary would list:
date, time (start and finish), brief description, location, who the
meeting was with, and the portfolio.

If you attend a meeting with the Minister on behalf of an organisation,
the name of the organisation will be released. If you are a senior staff
member at an organisation, or meet with the Minister in your personal
capacity, your name may also be released.

The location of the meeting will be released, unless it is a private
residence. The proactive release will be consistent with the provisions in
the Official Information Act, including privacy considerations. Under the
Privacy Act 1993 you have the right to ask for a copy of any personal
information we hold about you, and to ask for it to be corrected if you
think it is wrong.

If you’d like to ask for a copy of your information, or to have it
corrected, or are concerned about the release of your information in the
meeting disclosure, please contact the sender. You can read more about the
proactive release policy at

It's somewhat ironic that a negative response to an OIA request i.e. when the information is not held, is hugely informative. That's certainly the case here where the reply confirms that no estimates have been done on the capital charge and depreciation implications of $20b worth of new Defence kit. Time to get rid of capital charge for core state services. I've written on this on my blog here https://unclas.com/2019/07/03/charge-of-...
