Dear P. Shaw,

Official information request for communications on Central Bank Digital
Currency.

 

Thank you for your official information request of 5 July 2022 for:

 

·         All email communications between any representative of the
Reserve Bank of New Zealand and Dr Alex Sims of the University of Auckland
that mention "CBDC" or "central bank digital currency", and/or any other
term used to mean central bank digital currency, over the period
01/05/2021 to 20/09/2021.

·         If there are more than 100 emails within the scope of this
request, the first 20 emails will be sufficient to fulfil this request in
order to avoid outright rejection of the request under section(18)(f) of
the Official Information Act 1982.

 

We will endeavour to respond to your request as soon as possible and in
any event no later than 2 August 2022, being 20 working days after the day
of your request. If we are unable to respond to your request by then, we
will notify you of an extension of that timeframe.

 

Charges for providing official information and publishing responses

The Official Information Act allows charges to be imposed for the
preparation of information that we send in response to requests. The
Reserve Bank is resourced to meet disclosure obligations for a reasonable
level of requests and generally will not impose charges for small, simple
or infrequent requests. Where the request is for information that requires
substantial collation, research and preparation work, and is chargeable,
we will work with you first to refine the request to a smaller scale or
scope that is less likely to involve charges.

 

Responses to official information requests are published on the Reserve
Bank’s website. We will confirm in our decision letter to you whether we
intend to publish our response to your request.

 

Further information about charges and publishing responses is available on
our website at
[1]www.rbnz.govt.nz/research-and-publications/official-information-requests.

 

 

Yours sincerely,

Marie Ellen
