On or around 30 January 2023, Voices For Freedom Whangarei Local Group emailed councillors. In at least one version of that email, it said:
"We have today written a more comprehensive and detailed letter to Mayor Vince Cocurullo, outlining the expectations we have of our representatives within their capacities as either Mayor or Councillor, going forward."

    Tçnâ koe Mr Marshall,
I refer to your request of 8 February 2023 for correspondence sent to His
 Worship the Mayor.  Your request was referred to the Mayor’s Office for
 consideration.  You wrote:

His Worship the Mayor has not received or responded to any correspondence
 from representatives from the Voices for Freedom.  However, his office did
 receive the attached correspondence forwarded on by Councillor Yovich that
 that Councillor received from the Voices for Freedom.
I hope this information is of some assistance in responding to your
 request. If you believe we have not responded appropriately to your
 request, you have the right by way of complaint, under section 27(3) of
 the Act, to apply to the Ombudsman to seek an investigation and review of
 the decision.
Regards,
 
Jacqui Crompton
