Information withheld or refused
In order to make a decision on the release of the requested data, Inland Revenue is required to consult with the United States Internal Revenue Service.
As we did not receive approval from the United States to release this information, I have decided to withhold the information requested in full under section 6(a) of the OIA, as releasing the information would be likely to prejudice to the international relations of the Government of New Zealand.
