Subject: Official Information request - Advice to Minister on OIA Review

 

Dear Ministry of Justice,

 

In November 2019 the State Services Commission published the Ministry of
Justice's report on progress with Commitment 7 of the Open Government
Partnership National Action Plan, as of September 2019. This can be
accessed from here:

 

[2]https://ogp.org.nz/assets/New-Zealand-Pl...

 

On page 3 of this progress report, the Ministry states that under
Milestone 1:

 

"The Minister of Justice has considered the Ministry’s report and will
consult with his colleagues on proposals to progress a review."

 

This is an Official Information Act (OIA) request to be supplied with a
copy of the Ministry's report (submission/advice) to the Minister of
Justice.

 

Pursuant to section 16 of the OIA, my preferred method of receiving this
information is as electronic attachments to an email sent to the address
from which the Ministry received this request. Also pursuant to section 16
of the OIA I request that the attachments are provided in the original
file format in which they were created, and not as image-only (rasterised)
PDF documents, and that they are not watermarked with ‘Released under the
OIA’ or similar text, as the law does not require the Ministry to do this.

 

Under section 19(a)(ii), if the Ministry decides to withhold any of the
requested information I have requested, I further request that it provides
me with the grounds in support of any reasons for withholding that it has
asserted. I also ask that it list each of the public interest factors
favouring disclosure that it has considered when making its decision.

 

I look forward to hearing from the Ministry as soon as reasonably
practicable.

 

Kind regards,

 

Andrew Ecclestone
