The SIS, Five Eyes, and child sex trafficking

Mohammed Khan made this Official Information request to New Zealand Security Intelligence Service

The request was refused by New Zealand Security Intelligence Service.

From: Mohammed Khan

Dear New Zealand Security Intelligence Service,

I understand that the SIS is involved in 'Five Eyes' collaboration activities with a number of imperial powers. Two weeks ago, the book 'The Secret History of the Five Eyes' exposed that the Canadian Security Intelligence Service, one of your counterparts, had been involved in trafficking young girls into Syria to be used by the ISIS terrorist organization for sex, in support of the war against the Syrian people and their government.

1) Britain, like New Zealand, is part of the 'Five Eyes' group that is supposed to enhance our national security, which one assumes includes protecting young girls against rape, but this does not seem to have protected their citizens from victimization from the group. Is the DDIS aware of any assurances New Zealand has received that CSIS, or other elements of ISIS, will not send 15 year old New Zealand girls to be raped by takfiri terrorists, as they did British girls?

It has come to light that the 'Five Eyes' organization has been holding a 'gathering'/conference/meeting in New Zealand this month to advance its goals. This raises obvious concerns-
2a) What vetting has been conducted on foreigners attending this conference? In particular, have CSIS representatives been assessed to ensure they have not been involved in sex crimes or the trafficking of young girls for sex, as many have been revealed to have?
2b) What arrangements are in place to protect New Zealanders from those attending the conference? Are those attending the conference confined to the Millbrook Resort, or will they be allowed to roam the community at large, potentially coming into contact with underage victims? Has the SIS checked whether the Millbrook Resort employs anyone under the age of 18 who might be targeted by those attending the conference?
2c) Please detail other security arrangements around this conference.

Kind regards,
Mohammed Khan

Dear New Zealand Security Intelligence Service,

In my original email, I typed 'DDIS' in error. This should read 'SIS'.

Cheers,

Dear New Zealand Security Intelligence Service,

Apologies again- I confused two organizations with similar goals but different membership in my original request. Please take the following as an amended request:
