On behalf of Hon Craig Foss, thank you for your e-mail.

 

While the Minister considers all correspondence to be important and all
messages are carefully read and considered, it is not possible to provide
a personal response to every e-mail which is received.

 

Where the Minister has portfolio or MP for Tukituki responsibility for the
issues that you have raised, your correspondence will be considered and
responded to where appropriate.

 

If you are inviting the Minister to attend an event you are organising,
our office will be in touch shortly.

 

Kind regards

Dear John,

On behalf of Hon Craig Foss, Associate Minister of Immigration, I acknowledge receipt of your email regarding your Official Information Act request.

I am sorry but I do not have record of receiving this specific request.

Are you able to tell me to whom you sent the request?

In the meantime I have transferred your request to Immigration New Zealand so they can gather the information you have requested.

Kind regards,

Subject: Re: Official Information Act request - Immigration policies, principles, rules and guidlines.

Dear Associate Minister of Immigration,

On the 16th of April 2015 I made an OIA request: A COPY OF THE POLICIES, PRINCIPLES, RULES AND GUIDELINES COVERING INTERVIEWS AND EXCLUSIONS FOR ENTRY INTO NEW ZEALAND.

The final date for response was the 15th of May 2015.

In all other correspondence with your office with regards OIA requests, we have received respond letters telling us that your office was not in the position to answer so therefore our requests had been sent on to INZ. Those that were sent on were never answered promptly however were answered by the final date.
In this instance we are very disappointed with the fact that nothing has been done with regards this OIA request.

Given that this is obviously something that would be within their training manual we would have expected a prompt response.

If I have no response to this request by Monday I will be making a formal complaint to the Ombudsman and requesting this information through their office.

Yours faithfully,

John Harpley
