Dear Kainga Ora Correspondence,
I received an email response to my person email (not this FYI), which has the reference OI 23 553 and referred to these questions.
The following questions are still unanswered:
1./ Please advise what the remaining 2 residential lots are being used for
2./ Who will own the remaining 2 titles, or who will they be transferred to
The following question I was referred to your website which has released emails and documents, however none of the documents, emails or communications refer to the additional 2 lots, so I consider this OIA a fob off and unanswered; as the documents you refer to do not contain the information asked for:
3./ Please provide any documentation relating to the remaining 2 residential lots, such as agreements, contract for them, discussions around who will get them or who they would/could be allocated to. For the avoidance of doubt, this is any emails, txts, discussions, social media messages, phone calls, etc.
Yours sincerely,
Barry Murphy

Dear Kainga Ora Correspondence,
As per my responses you have failed to respond to all the questions asked and not followed up.
I will be passing this on to the ombudsman if not responded to by Wednesday as it is past due.

Dear Mr Murphy
This request was acknowledged in our letter to you of 19 October 2023
(sent to your personal email), which acknowledged this request and several
others. We advised you that we are treating these additional requests as
one request, and notified you of an extension of time to make our
decision, to 28 March 2024. If we can respond sooner, we will do so.
We advised you that in accordance with section 15A(1)(a) of the Act, this
extension is necessary because your request necessitates a search through
a large quantity of information and meeting the original time limit would
unreasonably interfere with our operations. 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.
Regards
Monique

Dear Kainga Ora Correspondence,
As I have previously stated, I do not accept the response or the aggregation of OIA's.
I do not accept the extension to 28th March 2024 either, as the resource consent will likely have an outcome by then.
RDC was asked the exact same set of questions and responded saying "RDC would have transferred this request to Kainga Ora as it is believed to be more closely connected with the functions of the agency that submitted the resource consent" RDC are now stating information that contradicts statements made by KO, where the consent is a partnership and all designs and decisions are made by the partners. It also makes the claim that Giles Tait had more authority and decision making than KO have claimed to date as RDC are not fully in the know of the decisions or documents pertaining to the remaining land.
Thus, my questions remain and I expect an answer immediately.
Yours sincerely,
Barry Murphy

Dear Kainga Ora Correspondence,
I still do not accept this extension. You have failed to answer this questions asked multiple times In Multiple ways.
You should be able to answer question 1 and 2 very easily
Yours sincerely,
Barry Murphy
From: Barry Murphy
Dear Kainga Ora Correspondence,
I remind you that the following 2 questions were not responded to by 27th October but rather ignored in your response:
1./ Please advise what the remaining 2 residential lots are being used for
2./ Who will own the remaining 2 titles, or who will they be transferred to
When I followed this up, you treated the questions as new questions, which is unacceptable as it was Kainga Ora that failed to response, or chose to ignore the question to buy further time.
Yours sincerely,
Barry Murphy

Dear Mr Murphy
Thank you for the seven emails received on 14 November. Your comments have
been noted.
Kāinga Ora has replied to 30 of your emails and requests. The first
received on 18 July 2023. We are considering the other 19 requests under
the terms of the Official Information Act. If you are dissatisfied with
the responses you have received or with our handling of your requests then
you may make a formal complaint to the Ombudsman on each of the points you
are dissatisfied with.
Through your requests you have the information that is available on this
development. Much of this information is now accessible online for all
members of the public to review at [1]Teitei Drive :: Kāinga Ora – Homes
and Communities (kaingaora.govt.nz).
In the future, we will not respond to further emails, such as these seven
received on 14 November, which express your opinion and do not constitute
new requests for official information as defined under the terms of the
Act.
