Dear Ed Grove,

 

On behalf of the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (the
Ministry) I acknowledge your email of 20^th October 2021 requesting under
the Official Information Act 1982 (the Act), the following:

 

‘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.’  

 

Your request is being processed in accordance with the Act and a response
will be sent to you in due course.

 

Due to the current Covid-19 alert level, the Ministry is currently focused
on assisting with the pandemic response and your response may be delayed.
The Ministry will contact you to provide further updates specific to your
request once it has been assessed.

 

If you have any enquiries regarding your request, or its urgency, feel
free to contact us via email at [1][MBIE request email].

Nâku noa, nâ
