Hospitality expenditure

P Robins made this Official Information request to Ministry for Regulation

The request was successful.

From: P Robins

Dear Ministry for Regulation,

I request all invoices paid by or issued to the Ministry in relation to any hospitality expenditure. This includes but is not limited to catering, gifts and other hospitality expenses.

I also request invoices for Ministry collateral, including branded stationary (pens, notebooks, etc), signage, advertising, and other branding expenses including Ministry logos.

Given its recent establishment, this should cover the entire period the Ministry has existed.

Yours faithfully,

P Robins

Kia ora

Thank you for your request.

Could you please clarify whether you are seeking the total amounts of invoices for these two categories, or would you like a list showing each invoice? If there is specific information you would like about each invoice please confirm this too.

Dear Hello,

I politely and respectful request you reconsider your extension because it equates to more than double the usual legal time for a request of this nature.

Yours sincerely,

Kia ora P Robins,

Thanks for your request.

Before issuing an extension, we consider the time needed to collate, assess, prepare and provide the information requested as well as the resourcing the Ministry has available.

As we are required to search through our finance system to identify transactions in scope of your request, and to manually export and collate copies of each relevant invoice, our extension remains the same based on the resourcing the Ministry currently has available.

If you would like to talk to someone about this further, please email us directly at [Ministry for Regulation request email] so we can arrange a phone call.

Ngā mihi,

Ministerial Services
Ministry for Regulation
