Turoa communications
Matt Bell made this Official Information request to Department of Conservation
The request was successful.
      From: Matt Bell
      
    
    Dear Department of Conservation,
Cam Robertson of Pure Turoa has said in media “There has a clear oversight and mis-alignment of the principles of the park plan (and by extension the Conservation Act) in the preparation of the Pure Tūroa Concession.”
This mis-alignment is concerning.
Can I request a copy of all emails sent and received between DOC and Pure Turoa Managers or Directors for three months September to November 2024.
Yours faithfully,
Matt Bell

‘A copy of all emails sent and received between DOC and Pure Turoa

 regularly with concessionaires on a variety of topics. Please specify
 topics of interest to you so that we are able to target our response and
 ensure it provides the information you are looking for. If there is a
 significant amount of information and clarification is not provided then
 aspects of your request may be refused via section 18(f) of the Official
 Information Act due to substantial collation.

 a new request for the purpose of calculating the maximum statutory
 timeframe for a response (if clarification was sought within seven days of
 receiving your request). Please see section 15(1AA) of the OIA:
