Kia Ora Unmesh Kant Shah -

 

I refer to your requests of 19 and 20 January 2022. These are noted below:

 

Will there be a separate emblem in New Zealand for Her Majesty The Queen's
Platinum Jubilee? The emblem used the United Kingdom was announced
following a competition, which was opened only for British residents.

 

For the Diamond Jubilee in 2012, the Government of Aotearoa New Zealand
released a separate emblem for New Zealand. Will this be followed for Her
Majesty's Platinum Jubilee? As the Platinum Jubilee is a historic event,
and Her Majesty being the first New Zealand monarch to reign for seven
decades, the Government should announce a special and unique emblem.

 

The emblem may be used for all activities associated with the Platinum
Jubilee in Aotearoa New Zealand, including community and national events,
publications, social media, retail and merchandising.

 

What are the celebrations and other commemorations planned in New Zealand
for Her Majesty The Queen's Platinum Jubilee? As Her Majesty is the first
New Zealand monarch to reach a platinum jubilee, will there be places
around Aotearoa New Zealand renamed in her honour? Could you also send me
a schedule for the events in New Zealand held to honour the Platinum
Jubilee?

 

The Ministry for Culture and Heritage is transferring this request in full
under section 14(b)(i) of the OIA. Specifically, MCH does not hold the
information you have requested but believes the information is held by the
Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet (DPMC). As such, this request is
transferred to the DPMC, who are cc’ed in this email. Any further
communication on this request will come directly from this agency. This
email serves as formal notification of this transfer.

 

You have the right to ask an Ombudsman to review this decision.
