Tēnā koe CERT,
Thank you for your Official Information Act 1982 (OIA) request of 24 March 2023. Your
request is as fol ows:
“Im wondering if you could provide all VHF frequencies both RT and TX using in
canterbury along with CTC tones so I can update our scanner database.”
Your request is refused under section 6(c) of the OIA, as the making available of the
information would be likely to prejudice the maintenance of the law, including the
prevention, investigation, and detection of offences, and the right to a fair trial.
Police considers the interests requiring protection by withholding the information are not
outweighed by any public interest in release of the information.
You have the right to ask the Ombudsman to review my decision if you are not satisfied
with the response to your request. Information about how to make a complaint is available
on th
e Ombudsman’s website.
Nāku iti noa, nā
