Kia ora Te Ringa Mangu Mihaka,

 

We refer to your below request made to the Ministry of Social Development
(the Ministry) under the Official Information Act 1982 (the Act).

 

I request all information the Ministry holds regarding the use of the old
Carisbrook Hotel in Dunedin for Emergency Housing.

 

This includes all photographs and images, copies of complaints from
clients, internal correspondence, all communication between MSD and the
owner, manager or staff at the Carisbrook Hotel, and all other
information.

 

This request is urgent because I am aware that there have been a number of
serious complaints made about the conditions at this emergency housing
provider.

 

We would like to note that Carisbrook Hotel, formally known as Parkside
Hotel is not a registered supplier with the Ministry for emergency
housing. As such, your request for information on the said hotel will most
likely be refused as we do not hold this information.

 

However, we would like to seek refinement of your request in order to
provide you with the most helpful information. You can refine your request
by clarifying if you are requesting information on Carisbrook Motel
instead of Carisbrook Hotel?

 

We have consulted internally and can confirm that Carisbrook Motel is a
registered supplier with us for Emergency Housing.

Please note that once you have refined your request, under section 15(1AA)
of the Official Information Act, the Ministry will treat your refined
request as a new request that replaces the original request. This restarts
the 20-working day response period. This is required to ensure that the
Ministry has enough time to process your request

If you do not refine your request by 15 August 2023, the Ministry will
proceed with your original request. Please note that this is likely to
result in a refusal of your original request.

Please confirm whether you agree with the refinement proposed.

Ngā mihi,

Ministry of Social Development
