Subject: Official Information request - Documents substantiating "contentious" animal welfare aspects

Dear National Emergency Management Agency,

In the proactively released document on the discharging of the emergency management bill as published on the agency's website:

https://www.civildefence.govt.nz/assets/...

It states:

8. Based on submissions the following aspects of the Bill are contentious:
8.4 lack of provisions relating to animal welfare during emergencies;

Based on the above, can you supply documents held that informed this position and any other information that substantiates the claim animal welfare improvements were contentious.

A cursory review of all public submissions found the majority related to animal welfare, and there were no occurrences of submissions suggesting changes were contentious. If anything, the submissions made pertaining to animal welfare were unanimous.

It is not clear how 65% of all public submissions wanted to see animal welfare focused on, yet out of all the proactively released reports, animals get a mere two short sentences out of 39 page report. It would appear the reports and advice is not reflective of that what citizens have asked for within what should be transparent democratic processes.

Yours faithfully,

Dr. Steve Glassey
Animal Evac New Zealand
