Dear James,

 

Thank you for your request for information under the Official Information
Act 1982 asking for information around social media monitoring, Police
visits and firearms holders in Auckland.

 

To assist in responding to your request, can you please clarify how you
are defining ‘concerning social media posts?’ Can you confirm if you are
referring to hate-motivated crime or if you have another definition in
mind of ‘concerning’ social media posts?

 

Kind regards,

Suzi
