Subject: Official Information Act request - NZ Superannuation and Canada Pension Plan

Dear Minister of Social Development,

In June 2010 Minister Finley, the Canadian Minister of Employment
and Social Development Canada, wrote to Minister Bennett, the New
Zealand Minister of Social Development, on the subject of New
Zealand's deduction of Canada Pension Plan benefits from New
Zealand Superannuation benefits.

My New Zealand Superannuation benefit is being reduced by the
amount of my Canada Pension Plan benefit.

Please provide me with copies of Minister Finley's letter and
Minister Bennett's reply.

Yours faithfully,

Robert Latimer
