Dear Ministry for Regulation,

Thanks for providing the information requested.

I do, however, disagree with the narrow scope the Ministry has taken to providing information requested under item 4 in my request "all directions and instructions from the Minister for Regulation".

Instead of providing ALL directions and instructions FROM the Minister of Regulation, what has been provided is only a subset of that.

Can the Ministry please provide copies of the rest of the directions and instructions it has received from the Minister for Regulation. Note this request is specific to directions and instructions, not all communications.

Ngā mihi,

Andrew Riddell

Can the Ministry please provide copies of the rest of the directions and instructions it has received from the Minister for Regulation. Note this request is specific to directions and instructions, not all communications.

Your request will need to be clarified or amended to enable us to respond as its scope is broad.
Could you please clarify if you are interested in directions and instructions relating to a specific topic or area? If you provide your phone number (perhaps not through FYI, for your privacy) I can give you a call to better understand the information you are seeking.

Please note, any clarification or amendment of a request is considered to be a new request for the purpose of calculating the maximum statutory timeframe for response—see section 15(1AA) of the Official Information Act.

Ngā mihi,

Jessie
