Dear Department of Internal Affairs,

 

I note the story announcing the prime minister has directed the amount of
funding for ministerial self-drive vehicles has been cut.

 

I seek all correspondence including emails, text messages, written notes
and aide memoires internally within ministerial services, vip transport
and DIA, and with the minister responsible for ministerial services
regarding developing advice for the policy around ministerial self-drive
vehicles for the incoming 2023 government. This is to include (among other
subjects) discussion around electric vehicle charging, costs and
budget-setting, vehicle standards and evaluation criteria/testing, and
supply chain.

 

I also seek correspondence regarding the process and implementation of
returning of ministerial self-drive vehicles from the last out-going
government including what is to happen with any tax-payer/DIA funded EV
chargers installed in minister’s residences.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Lional Jones
