Dear Department of Internal Affairs,

 

I am writing to request information about the website beehive.govt.nz. As
it is currently down, I cannot see who is responsible for it. If it is not
a DIA responsibility, I would appreciate it if you could transfer the
request to the appropriate authority.

 

I am curious about the transition between administrations, and the changes
that are made to the website.

 

What is the process that is followed when changing the beehive.govt.nz
website to reflect a new government.  In particular:

- When does consultation on the website start with the incoming
government?

- Who (position/role is fine) is consulted?

- Who (position/role is fine) is responsible for decisions?

- What steps are taken to maintain information from the website as it was
under the previous government?

 

In relation to the 2008 (if readily accessible), 2017 and 2023
transitions:

- How long was the website down for?

- How much did the transition cost?

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Ben
