This email is to advise that a decision has been made in accordance with
the Official Information Act 1982 (OIA). The information in scope of your
request will be provided to you after being administratively processed.
This is taking longer than anticipated due to government’s response to the
Covid-19 pandemic.

 

Formal advice provided to this office by the Ministry for Culture and
Heritage will soon be made publicly available on the Ministry’s website at
[1]https://mch.govt.nz/proactive_releases . Therefore, these documents
have been refused under section 18(d) of the OIA - that the information
requested is or will soon be publicly available.

 

Other documentation, including correspondence within scope of your request
will be released in accordance with OIA shortly

 

Some material has been withheld in accordance with section 9 of the OIA.
In these cases, any public interest has been considered as per section
9(1) of the OIA.

 

You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of
this decision. Information about how to make a complaint is available at
[2]www.ombudsman.parliament.nz  or freephone 0800 802 602.

I am very sorry for the delay in this information being released.   I am
advised that the Ministry for Culture and Heritage will be posting its
material on its website in the next two or three days.

 

We've been working to co-ordinate responses to your OIA requests to this
office and to Minister Faafoi's office.  The bulk of the relevant
documents will be released to you by Minister Faafoi's office as Minister
responsible for RNZ; there is very little held by this office which isn't
also held by Minister Faafoi's office

 

My expectation is that you should get responses from both offices within
the next two weeks.  I will keep you updated.

Dear Sarah Tebbs,

Given RNZ's attempt to destroy a longstanding cultural institution, I think this type of response from the Prime Minister's office makes a mockery of the Official Information Act.

Five months wait for a series of mostly redacted documents is not a transparent government.

Yours sincerely,

Gareth Watkins
