Dear OIA,
i have read the information attached by BDM or DIA, it does not meet the requesters OIA request;

The simple request is:
Why is an affidavit of life instrument, that has been signed, finger printed, and witnessed with a seal of a public notary, not sufficient enough to amend the outdated information held with the registrar of BDM or DIA;

What authorizes the registrar to not amend the record, and what is their job description;

We do not wish for information from their websites, its not sufficient, we would like information that would satisfy the request;

Another matter: why do agencies escape answering simple, but genuine requests by using the OIA to refuse information when we are certain that information does exist, its been held in secret;

Cease the secrecy and provide the public the truth; for once and the requests will cease;

Dear SDO Official Correspondence,

You have not answered my request appropriately, sending my request to "your" internal affairs, OIA website doesn't satisfy the requestors request;
https://www.dia.govt.nz/official-informa...

Request to provide me the NZ legislation that states an affidavit of life is not sufficient to amend a record;

Request for information of what is SUFFICIENT
Request for information of how to get the record amended
Request for information of how to bring agents of this corporation to account if they do not amend the record according to their own legislation [privacy act 2020, s22 principle 7]; besides your friend the Ombudsman?

Request to provide me under the jurisdiction of common law, a sufficient reason why a record that holds wrong information cannot be updated and amended;

Internal affairs agents refrain from using the Official information request to refuse requests under a certain section; as i am aware that the ombudsmans office, was to investigate, the use of certain legislation used by agents of agencies to justify not releasing the information, that people of the nation have a God given birth right to view;

Yours sincerely,

tina marie kahurangi
