Submissions made to the Overview Group on The Weathertightness of Buildings and/or BIA

Ed Grove made this Official Information request to Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment

The request was refused by Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment.

From: Ed Grove

Dear Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment,

From: Edward Grove

Dear Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment,

I am wishing to obtain copies of all submissions (excluding submissions from individuals) received by the Overview Group on The Weathertightness of Buildings and/or BIA prior to end of 2002 in relation to the causes of the "leaky building crisis". I am particularly interested in the submissions lodged by Scion, the New Zealand Institute of Forestry, Branz, any forest industry participants, and any research organisations including universities, with a particular focus on any consideration of wood funtional quality issues as being of potential relevance to weathertightness failures.

Note: I have previously made this same OIA request on 26 July 2021, and received no response of any form from MBIE.

Yours faithfully,

Ed Grove
