Subject: Official Information request - Contracts awarded to family members

Dear Nanaia Mahuta,

Under the official information act I am requesting the details of all contracts awarded to companies where one or more of your family members is a director or shareholder.

This includes, but is not limited to Ka Awatea Servces Limited.

I am also requesting details of the process undertaken to award these contracts, including some details of other applicants. For privacy reasons I understand that names of people and companies may need to be redacted and that is fine. I am more interested in their qualifications and experience that is relevant to the contracts they were over looked for.

Yours faithfully,

Mark Wong

Tēnā koe Mr Wong

 

Thank you for your email of 10 May 2022, requesting the below information
under the Official Information Act 1982 (the Act):

 

Under the official information act I am requesting the details of all
contracts awarded to companies where one or more of your family members is
a director or shareholder. This includes, but is not limited to Ka Awatea
Services Limited.

I am also requesting details of the process undertaken to award these
contracts, including some details of other applicants. For privacy reasons
I understand that names of people and companies may need to be redacted
and that is fine. I am more interested in their qualifications and
experience that is relevant to the contracts they were over looked for.

 

I am writing to advise you that I am extending the timeframe to respond to
your request by 10 working days to 18 June 2022. This extension is subject
to section 15A(1)(b) of the Act, as consultations necessary to make a
decision on your request are such that I cannot respond within the
original time limit. However, the response will be provided to you earlier
if possible.

 

You have the right to seek an investigation of and review of my decision
by the Ombudsman under section 28(3) of the Act. Information about how to
make a complaint is available at [1]www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or
freephone 0800 802 602.
