Kia ora P Taylor

 

I refer to your request of 10 March 2022 for the following:

 

In accordance with the Official Information Act 1982, I would like to
request all information relating to the purchase of any MK-9 pepper spray,
or it's equivalent or similar product, during the period 01/02/2022 and
the current date of 10/03/2022.

In accordance with the Official Information Act 1982, I would like to
request any information in relation to any judicial review, conducted in
accordance with the Judicial Review Procedure Act 2016, of the proposed
police actions, or operations, during the period 01/03/2022 and 04/03/2022
in regards to the "CONVOY 2022 NZ" protest in Wellington, New Zealand.

In accordance with the Official Information Act 1982, I would like to
request any New Zealand Police intelligence assessments or summaries, or
documents of similar intention, in relation to the "CONVOY 2022 NZ"
protest in Wellington that were compiled during the period of 01/02/2022
to 03/03/2022.

 

Police has received a large number of Official Information Act 1982 (OIA)
requests relating to the protest activity at Parliament and we remain
committed to meeting our obligations under the OIA. However, as key
personnel remain committed to the operation it is necessary for Police to
extend the time limit under the following sections:

 

o s15A(1)(a) your request necessitates a search through a large quantity
of information it is necessary for Police to extend the time limit
under section 15A(1)(a), as meeting the original time limit would
unreasonably interfere with those operations, and;
o s15A(1)(b) as the consultations necessary to make a decision on your
request are such that a proper response to the request cannot
reasonably be made within the original time limit.

 

Police requires until 27 May 2022 to provide a substantive response to
your request. If it is possible to get information to you ahead of this
new deadline, every effort will be made to do so.

 

I can confirm that we intend to provide you with a partial response,
addressing your first two questions (relating to purchase of MK-9 pepper
spray and judicial reviews), ahead of the 27 May 2022 extension date. This
portion of our response is in the final drafting stage and will be
referred to you as soon as drafting and consultation is complete.

 

You have the right, under section 28(3) of the OIA, to make a complaint to
an Ombudsman about this extension.

 

If you wish to discuss any aspect of your request with us, including this
decision, please feel free to contact
[1][email address].
