Dear Bruce
Official Information Act request relating to Attempt to ask question of the Chinese
Premier
Thank you for your Official Information Act 1982 (the Act) request received on 19 June 2024.
You requested:
“I request all official information held about the attempt by a Stuff reporter to ask a
question of the Chinese Premier.”
I note that you have submitted the same request to multiple agencies. Accordingly, this
response is only in relation to information held by the Department of the Prime Minister and
Cabinet (DPMC). For information held by the other agencies you submitted your request to, I
refer you to their responses.
I am refusing to respond to your request as DPMC does not hold any information in scope of
your request. This decision has been made under section 18(e) of the Act.
You have the right to ask the Ombudsman to investigate and review my decision under
section 28(3) of the Act.
We do not intend to publish this response on the Department of the Prime Minister and
Cabinet’s website.
Yours sincerely
Clare Ward
Executive Director
