Dear Phillip Hart,
Thank you for email dated 12 September 2024, in which you made the following Official
Information Act 1982 request (OIA):
“
The NZ First Coalition Agreement of 2023 states:
Conduct a comprehensive review of all legislation (except when it is related to, or
substantive to, existing full and final Treaty settlements) that includes 'The Principles
of the Treaty of Waitangi" and replace all such references with specific words relating
to the relevance and application of the Treaty, or repeal the references.
Please provide detail on all the legislation that has been amended in line with this
review.”
Your request has been transferred to the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) for response, as it is more
closely connected with the functions of the MoJ (section 14(b)(ii) of the OIA refers). In these
circumstances, we are required by section 14 of the Official Information Act to transfer your
request.
The Ministry of Justice has the usual time limits from receipt of this transfer to make a
decision on your request.
You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of this decision
by contacting
www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802 602.
Kind regards,
Jamie Allen
Private Secretary (Advisory/Media)
