From: B. Clarke
Dear Ministry of Health,
Re: H202006052
I refer to your letter dated 7 September 2020 in the above-referenced matter. It is wholly unacceptable that I was given only two days to "clarify" my request before it was denied in whole, especially because I was only asked to clarified one part of my request.
Nonetheless, herewith is a clarified request: please provide copies of all advice and memoranda (in whatever form) dealing with policy arguments for and against (a) the use of managed isolation facilities in New Zealand as a border-control response to the COVID-19 pandemic and (b) charging users for their stay in managed isolation facilities.
I anxiously await your response in accordance with the Official Information Act 1982.
Yours faithfully,
B. Clarke
Ministry of Health
