Tēnā koe R Y Ong,

Thank you for your Official Information Act 1982 request for the following:

Could I please get all NAWAC minutes that are not currently publicly available on the MPI website?

You have mentioned that you are interested in all NAWAC minutes not publicly available. So as to develop a more manageable request, can you please provide more specifics about the particular information you are requesting, such as confirming the time period you are requesting? Are you wanting the more recent minutes that have yet to be made publicly available on the web (rather than the past ones prior to February 16 meeting?)

This clarification will enable MPI to better respond to your request. In the absence of any clarification, MPI is likely to require an extension, or may consider refusing this request under 18(f) of the OIA. As you may be aware, the OIA requires a decision to be provided as soon as practicable, so please let me know as soon as possible if you have any questions or issues.

Ngā mihi,

Tēnā koe R Y Ong,

Thank you for your email. Are you able to further refine the years of the NAWAC minutes you are interested in as the minutes still go back a significant amount of years. Alternatively, are you able to provide what sort of information you are looking for in the minutes so that we can consider providing you with the relevant meeting minutes only?

Ngā mihi,
