Provide the total actual cost and / or estimated cost of the cancellation of iReX project.
Miss W. Forest made this Official Information request to Ministry of Transport
Response to this request is long overdue. By law Ministry of Transport should have responded by now (details and exceptions). The requester can complain to the Ombudsman.
From: Miss W. Forest
Dear Ministry of Transport,
This is aggregate of all either actual and / or estimated costs and thus does not fall into commercial in confidence.
If you refuse to release the information, please explain precisely why releasing the aggregate amount would prejudice or disadvantage you carrying individual cost items under it that make the aggregate estimate and / or actual costs.
I believe that you have been provided estimates to make a decision to cancel the project and this information ought to be public.
Yours faithfully,
Miss W. Forest
