Kia Ora,

Thank you for contacting Hon Grant Robertson, Deputy Prime Minister, the
Minister of Finance, Minister for Infrastructure, Minister for Sport and
Recreation, Minister for Racing and MP for Wellington Central.

The Minister considers all correspondence important and appreciates you
taking the time to write. As Minister Robertson receives a large amount of
correspondence it is not always possible to personally reply to all
emails.

The following guidelines apply:

Portfolio related correspondence will be considered and  responded to
where appropriate

Invitations and requests to meet with the Minister will be processed as
soon as possible and a staff member will be in contact with you in due
course

Media queries will be responded to by a staff member.

Requests for official information will be managed in accordance with the
provisions of the Official Information Act 1982, which may include
transfer to a more relevant Minister or agency.

If your correspondence is to the Minister as the Member of Parliament for
Wellington Central, this will be referred to his electorate office.

If your email falls outside of the Minister’s portfolio responsibilities,
expresses a personal view, or is copied to multiple Members of Parliament,
then your opinion will be noted and your correspondence may be transferred
to another office, or there may be no further response to you.

 

Please note information about meetings related to the Ministers’
portfolios will be proactively released (this does not include personal or
constituency matters). For each meeting in scope, the summary would list:
date, time (start and finish), brief description, location, who the
meeting was with, and the portfolio. If you attend a meeting with the
Minister on behalf of an organisation, the name of the organisation will
be released. If you are a senior staff member at an organisation, or meet
with the Minister in your personal capacity, your name may also be
released. The location of the meeting will be released, unless it is a
private residence. The proactive release will be consistent with the
provisions in the Official Information Act, including privacy
considerations. Under the Privacy Act 1993 you have the right to ask for a
copy of any personal information we hold about you, and to ask for it to
be corrected if you think it is wrong. If you’d like to ask for a copy of
your information, or to have it corrected, or are concerned about the
release of your information in the meeting disclosure, please contact the
sender. You can read more about the proactive release policy at

Dear Victoria

On behalf of Hon Grant Robertson, thank you for your Official Information Act request received 23 September 2021 seeking all correspondence with New Zealand-based Australian Progress fellows.

It is unclear from your request who is a New Zealand based Australian Progress fellow. Because of this, on 29 September 2021 and 13 October 2021, a Treasury official contacted to seek clarification of your request. To date we have not received the names of any New Zealand based Australian Progress fellows.

Section 12(2) of the Official Information Act 1982 states that the official information requested shall be specified with due particularity in the request. Your request cannot be considered a request under the Official Information Act as it does not comply with s 12(2). If your request is resubmitted with the names of any New Zealand based Australian Progress fellow it could then be considered under the OIA.

Kind regards

Private Secretary | Office of Hon Grant Robertson
