Declassification program
Scott made this Official Information request to Ministry of Defence
The request was successful.
      From: Scott
      
    
    Dear Ministry of Defence,
The 2022 update to the NZ Classification System Policy introduced new advisories and requirements for PSR-mandated agencies who hold classified information such as MoD.
Relating to this, I would like to request copies of:
ONE: The MoD Declassification Policy
TWO: The MoD Declassification Governance Framework
THREE: Any MoD documents that set out critria for declassifying documents
FOUR: Any plan or roadmap MoD has for proactive declassification
FIVE: For the PSR Self-Assessment Reports submitted 2023 and 2024, all answers supplied by MoD to the questions relating to the implementation of the 2022 Classification System Policy update (including any written answers and attachments included as part of MoD's answers)
In terms of Section 16(2) of the OIA my preference is to receive copies of these documents, rather than an excerpt or summary.
Yours faithfully,
Scott
