 Kia ora Z Williams

 

Thank you for your LGOIMA request dated 21 September 2022.

 

Could you please provide a phone number I can contact you on as I’d like
to discuss the scope of your request to help you obtain the information
you’re seeking. As you will be aware, details around Taupo Volcano are
held by GNS Science and Taupo District Council may not hold some of the
information you would like. I would like to help you get the information
you seek, but may need to advise you on where the best place is to get the
information. (As opposed to us simply stating we don’t hold the
information, such as eruption zones, plans around activity alerts etc.)

 

Nga mihi

Libby

Kia ora Zach,

Please see below responses to your questions as attached and below -

You can certainly contact them if you would like this information:

See - https://www.waikatoregion.govt.nz/counci...

The other documents you have requested are not held by Taupō District Council, or do not exist, and therefore is refused pursuant to Section 17(e) and/or (g) of the Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987 on the basis that the document alleged to contain the information requested does not exist, or that the information requested is not held by Taupō District Council.
