Details of any comms or PR work done to develop the answer “I reject the premise of that question”

Lional Jones made this Official Information request to Jacinda Ardern

The request was refused by Jacinda Ardern.

From: Lional Jones

Dear Jacinda Ardern,

I would like any emails, text messages, memos or any other written material produced by your media advisors or other staff, discussing the development of the phrase “I reject the premise of your/that question” as a response to media or opposition questions.

This shouldn’t require a large-scale search that would potentially lead to the request being declined based on substantial collation or effort. If the answer was produced as part of a managed response, your staff should be able to produce the requested information readily.

Yours faithfully,

Lional Jones
