Advice on Law Commission report on OIA

Alex Harris made this Official Information request to Ministry of Justice

The request was successful.

From: Alex Harris

Dear Ministry of Justice,

In 2012 the law Commission released its report "The Public’s Right to Know: Review of the Official Information Legislation" (NZLC 125). I would like to request the following information under the OIA:

* all advice produced in response to the report. I'm aware that there's a publicly available government response to the report (tabled in the house of representatives in 2013); I'm interested in the advice that produced that response, as well as anything since on legislation to implement the government's policy choices;
* any advice unrelated to the above on reform of or changes to the Official Information Act

I would prefer to receive an electronic response. Queries about
this request will be automatically forwarded to me by the
fyi.org.nz website.

With regards to s12 of the OIA, I am an NZ citizen and in NZ.

Yours faithfully,

Alex Harris
