Could you please tell me the total expenses incurred by you and your office relating to negotiations for the Trans Pacific Partnership since you were appointed Trade Minister in 2008 to the nearest thousand dollars?
Yours faithfully,

        From: T Groser (MIN)
        Minister of Trade
      
    
    On behalf of Hon Tim Groser, thank you for your email.  Your
 correspondence has been noted and will be recorded.
 
All correspondence, including email,  is routed through our mail tracking
 process.  Although e-mail increases the speed of delivery, the
 “behind-the-scenes” efforts of the Minister’s staff in responding to
 mail cannot always provide the kind of speedy response users of email may
 anticipate.
 
While the Minister considers all correspondence to be important, if it is
 obvious that you are writing only to express a personal view your opinion
 will be noted but a response beyond this acknowledgement may not be sent.
 
Thank you again.
