The request was successful.
      From: Andrew Crow
      
    
    Dear Ministry of Social Development,
It has been shown that Air travel is a large contribution to global climate change.
I am keen to get measurements or numbers to show what government is doing about this.
Under OIA I request:
1. Total number of airline tickets purchased in 18/19 financial year.
2. Breakdown by domestic vs international.
3. Any internal plans to reduce airline travel.
4. Job titles of the top 5 travellers.
5. Any other information that would help the public understand the departments use of airline travel.
N.B ; this request is being sent to a number of government departments.
Yours faithfully,
Andrew Crow
