Follow-up to IR-01-23-15645

Bruce made this Official Information request to New Zealand Police

New Zealand Police did not have the information requested.

From: Bruce

Dear New Zealand Police,

Re: IR-01-23-15645

Thank you for the response to my request.

I have a number of additional questions.

How were the video files shown on 16/02/2022 and 18/11/2021 from the Eagle chopper given to media organisations? If they were sent by email then that would presumably have met the criteria of my previous request regarding all correspondence.

Have there been requests from media organisations for additional Eagle footage in the last year?

If so, who asked for it, and was the footage released? Please supply all documentation regarding the requests, and any internal correspondence regarding the release or otherwise of the footage.

Please release any policy or guidelines regarding the release of video footage by Police to media organisations.

Yours faithfully,

Bruce
