Subject: Official Information request - Waste Advisory Board OIA

MFE CYBER SECURITY WARNING
This email originated from outside our organisation. Please take extra care when clicking on any links or opening any attachments.

Dear Ministry for the Environment,

I noted on your website,

https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlo...

"The Waste Advisory Board meets for a full day (usually in Wellington) around four times per year. Additionally, members need time to prepare for these meetings and prepare advice for the Minister."

May I kindly ask you to supply the full meeting minutes for the Waste Advisory Board from 1st January 2021 to now. For transparency reason, I am also encouraging you and the board to regularly publish the board meeting minutes on your website like other government agency did.

I am also note some discrepancy for the current board member compare to the current Gazette notice. Can you please update your website to reflect the actual information.
https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlo...

Yours faithfully,

john luke
