Thank you for your request made under the Official Information Act 1982,
copied below. I am writing to you on behalf of the Office of the Prime
Minister (PMO). You requested:

 

"...Please kindly provide the complete accounting of, and all contents of,
all correspondence, meetings, phone conversations, memos etc to and from
yourself, or your office between the dates of 14 March 2019 to 11 April
2019."

 

On review, particularly given the heightened activity in their office
during the timeframe specified in your request, PMO have advised the
information you requested would likely be refused under section 18(f) of
the Act, as it would require substantial collation or research to provide.

 

To enable PMO to respond more fully to your request, you may wish to
refine your request to specific information relating to the response to
the Christchurch mosque attacks. For example, you noted the changes to
Firearms Laws in your request to the office.

 

In addition to this, I note your request seeks an accounting of meetings
and phone conversations. PMO have advised information relating to the
Prime Minister’s meetings and scheduled phone conversations are published
in the monthly proactive releases of the Prime Minister’s diary, which is
publicly available at the following address:
[1]https://www.beehive.govt.nz/search?f%5B0...

 

Would be grateful if you could please respond regarding a refinement of
your request by 30 October 2020.
