From: David Farrar
Dear Ministry of Justice,
Under the Official Information Act I request all information and documents you hold concerning the appointment of Fale Andrew Lesā:
1) As a Justice of the Peace in 2021
2) As a Visting Justice in 2025
I am happy for this to be treated as two seperate requests for the two appointments - ie if one of them takes longer than the other, I am happy to receive them separately.
Yours faithfully,
