Outstanding request via Dept if Internal Affairs OIAD-924 23.12.2023
Fred de Leon made this Official Information request to Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade
The request was partially successful.
From: Fred de Leon
Dear Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade,
I refer to a request I made to Dept of Internal Affairs on 23 Dec 2023 , which elicited a response with ref OIAD-924 in the form of a letter from Ministry for the Environment ( undated ) and that I would also be receiving a response from Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade regarding further information originally requested.
The gist of which was who accompanied Minister Paula Bennett from the New Zealand Government in capacity as an advisor employee of the Crown or an appointee of the Crown as a guest or otherwise when she visited New York to sign the Paris Accord in April 2016.
According to my records, I do not appear to have received that reply from your Dept.
Yours faithfully,
Fred de Leon
