Cost of climate change consultation

Chris Blythe made this Official Information request to Ministry for the Environment

Response to this request is long overdue. By law Ministry for the Environment should have responded by now (details and exceptions). The requester can complain to the Ombudsman.

From: Chris Blythe

Dear Office of the Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment,
I would like to know the budget and costs for the climate change target consultation.
Can you provide a broad breakdown rather than just a total showing,
Publications
Workshops
Travel and accomodation
Consultants and staffing

Can you also provide a similar breakdown for the cost of consultation on the change of flag.

Yours faithfully,

Chris Blythe

Dear Chris,

Thank you for your enquiry.

The climate change target consultation was undertaken by the Ministry for the Environment, rather than the Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment. Therefore the information you request is not held by the Commissioner, but is believed to be held by the Ministry.

Accordingly, I have referred your question to the Ministry for the Environment, as per section 14 of the Official Information Act.

You may also wish to repost your question to the Ministry through the FYI website so they can respond to you.

Your sincerely,

Tom Crick
Communications and Information Adviser
Office of the Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment

Dear Chris,

Your request remains an Official Information request and the Ministry can use the existing thread when making their response (I included the necessary details in my correspondence to them).

Kind regards,
