Dear Steve
Response to your official information request
Thank you for your official information request received on 28 July 2022 for a copy of the
assessment report for McDonald's consent dated 6 May 2022, case 202100805.
Some of the information you have requested is enclosed. However, information relating
to consideration and address has been refused under section s9(2)(b)(i ) of the Official
Information Act as release would unreasonably prejudice the commercial position of
McDonald’s.
We are of the view that the withholding of the information is not outweighed by other
considerations which render it desirable in the public interest to make that information
available.
If you wish to discuss this decision with us, please feel free to contact the Overseas
Information Office at
[email address]. You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of this
decision. Information about how to make a complaint is available at
www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802 602.
Please note, this response letter outlining our decision on your request,
with your
personal details withheld, and any attached documentation wil be published on the
Toitū Te Whenua Land Information New Zealand’s website. This is likely to be published in
early September 2022.
Yours sincerely
Marcus McMil ian
