Dear Harrison
In order to answer your request comprehensively, could you please clarify the nature of the records you are looking for - i.e. are you looking only for the number of film permits issued per financial year since the formation of Auckland Council, or for more specific information about each permit issued? If it is the latter, could you please specify the details you require.
Many thanks
Rosie

Hi Rosie,
Apologies for the delay, I hadn't seen your previous message. I am looking for the location/address and dates each permit is for and who applied for each permit.
Many thanks,
Harrison

Hi Harrison
Thanks for your clarification of your information request under the Local
Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987 (“LGOIMA”).
We have assessed the amount of work required to respond to your request
and provide the information you are seeking. The amount of time required
to collate this information has been estimated to be 65 hours.
Auckland Council’s [1]charging policy for requests under LGOIMA sets 4
hours as the limit for non-chargeable time. Accordingly, should you wish
to proceed with your request in its current form, we would require you to
pay for 61 hours’ time, charged at $38 per half-hour, inclusive of GST.
This would set the fee at $4636.00.
You are welcome to modify the scope of your request in order to reduce the
amount of collation required, and thus avoid a fee. If this interests you,
please feel free to give me a call on the numbers below, and we can
endeavour to refine your request.
If you do not wish to refine your request, or pay the fee, then your
request will be refused under [2]s 17(f) of LGOIMA, on the basis that the
information cannot be made available without substantial collation or
research.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Kind regards
Rosie

Dear Rosie,
Could avoid the fee by only including permits from the suburbs Onehunga and Hillsborough? If not, could I instead request the date/s and applicant/s for any permit issued for Taylor's Bay Reserve/Bluff Terrace in Hillsborough from 1 January 2014 onwards? If neither of these are possible could I please cancel my request.
Yours sincerely,
Harrison
From: Rosie Judd
Auckland Council
Good afternoon Harrison
Thank you for refining your request below. I can confirm that you can
avoid the fee by restricting your request for "the date/s and applicant/s
for any permit issued for Taylor's Bay Reserve/Bluff Terrace in
Hillsborough from 1 January 2014 onwards".
Accordingly, I will process your request for the above information and
will be in touch when I have further information.
Kind regards
Rosie
