Kia ora Stefan,

 

Thank you for your below Local Government Official Information and
Meetings Act 1987 (the Act) request dated 12 February 2023.

 

We are withholding the report you’ve requested under section 7(2)(b)(ii)
as releasing this information would harm the commercial position of the
company involved. However, we have a number of emails in scope of your

attach into an email - this information can be accessed by the following
link:
[1]https://extranet.uhcc.govt.nz/w/f-b27854....
We have made some additional minor redactions under 7(2)(a) to protect the
privacy of individuals. To note, the report is an attachment in the
emails, which are the pages that have been withheld in full.

 

Kiteworks is our cloud storage platform which we use for sharing large
files and all you need to do is to set up a Kiteworks account using this
email address ([2][FOI #21804 email]). Let me
know if you have any issues accessing this.

 

I believe this has answered the full scope of your request.  Please let me

Dear Stefan

 

Official Information request for information regarding Silverstream spur
forestry

 

I refer to your information request dated 3 November 2023 outlined below.

 

I would like all copies of emails, reports, discussion notes and any other
records relating to discussions between any council staff member/s and any
representative from Guildford Timber Company or any other such company
relating to removal or felling of the pine trees on the Silverstream spur
between January 2022 and the present day, in particular (but not limited
to) when these discussions concern the construction of any roading or
track, be it for forestry purposes or anything else on the spur or
adjacent land.

 

In response to your request, we have decided to refuse your request under
section 17(e) of the Local Government Official Information and Meetings
Act 1987 as there is no additional information that we hold that has not
already been provided to you previously.

 

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
[1]www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802 602.

 

Kind regards
