Your application to access restricted bulk property ownership data via the LINZ Data Service has been declined because it did not provide satisfactory evidence that:

its use would not breach individuals’ rights to privacy; and/or
the personal information within the dataset would be sufficiently protected.
You can access property ownership information for individual properties via the LINZ Land Record Search: https://lrs.linz.govt.nz/search/.

No further correspondence will be entered into with regards to this decision, however you may choose to reapply for access to this restricted dataset by submitting a new application.

Action required
As per our terms and conditions, you are required to delete any data you hold and confirm deletion by replying to this email within 5 working days.

Tena koe,

I had requested the information to support my request to reconsider my request. As my access is to be restored I no longer require the information.
