Tçnâ koe Robert,

 

I am writing to you about your Official Information Act 1982 request made
to the Department of Internal Affairs on 1 September 2024.

 

It is our preliminary view that the Department does not hold any
information within scope of part one of your request which seeks “any
emails, internal memos or funding requests that refer to the ACAMS
training as being the DIAs preferred training provider for its AML branch
and any communications between the DIA and ACAMS in respect of the cost of
providing that training to staff”, and we are proposing to refuse your
request under section 18(e) of the Act, as the information requested does
not exist.

 

Section 18B of the Act specifies that if a request is likely to be refused
under section 18(e) or (f) of the Act, then the department must consider
before that request is refused, whether consulting with the person who
made the request would assist that person to make the request in a form
that would remove the reason for the refusal. Because of this, we want to
give you the opportunity to respond to this preliminary view before we
release our final decision.

 

In addition to the above, part two of your request seeks “communications
between other third parties and DIA staff in respect of ACAMS training”.
It would be helpful if you could provide details of what specific
individuals or organisations you are referring to when you mention ‘third
parties’? This will help us determine whether any information is held and
enable us to provide you with the most helpful answer.

 

Please provide any additional context or amendments to your request by 5pm
on 12 September 2024.

 

Should you have any questions regarding this process, please let us know.

 

Ngâ mihi,

 

Louise
