How many 'joke" OIA requests are received?

Liam Hehir made this Official Information request to Public Service Commission

The request was refused by Public Service Commission.

From: Liam Hehir

Dear State Services Commission,

I understand that you collect statistics regarding the responses of Crown entities and government departments under the Official Information Act 1982.

If it's not too much trouble, I was wondering whether you hold any statistics as to the number of trivial or frivolous "joke" OIA requests submitted to agencies by journalists.

Yours faithfully,

Liam Hehir
