Good afternoon Cooper,

 

Thank you for your Official Information Act request to the Department of
Internal Affairs. I am writing to invite you to rescope your below OIA

As it stands, your questions are substantial and we may need to refuse
them under section 18(f) of the Act, that the information requested cannot
be made available without substantial collation or research, unless you
rescope them.

 

This particularly applies to:

-the large timeframe of your request; and

-your question about all correspondence with Apple from from 1 January
2018 to the present.

 

The Department has three different areas where information could be in
scope, these are:

-Digital safety

-Policy

-Digital services – agency partnership and capability and all of
government

 

Could you please advise which area you are after for meetings with Apple?

 

We would be grateful if you could please narrow your request so we are
able to supply you with information in a reasonable timeframe. Please
advise by 9 June 2025.

 

Kind regards,
