Subject: Official Information request - CIMS Worked Well for this Event

 

Dear Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet,

 

The Lesson\NZ report on the Whakaari/White Island Response (Nov 2020)
states on Page 19 (Insights Para e) that "Feedback indicates that the
application of CIMS worked well for the event".  This statement
contradicts other statements in the report (eg confusion re who was the
Lead Agency, failings with respect to taskings, issues re roles and
responsibilities between agencies, coordination centres and IMTs, etc).

 

Under the provisions of the Official Information Act I request a copy of
the "feedback" (as a communication, debrief notes, record of a meeting or
other notes) provided to the authors of the report that supports the
statement made in Insights e) on Page 19 that "CIMS worked well" along
with the name of the organisation(s) who provided the feedback.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Alan Thompson
