From: A M C Smith
Dear Ministry of Social Development,
I am currently undertaking research into social security agreements negotiated by New Zealand with foreign countries.
I am seeking to have access to background papers prepared for the negotiations for the Agreement on Social Security between the Government of New Zealand and the Government of Australia done at Canberra on 28 March 2001. I wish to receive papers relating to policy and estimates as to costs arising to each state under this agreement.
Yours faithfully,
