We have decided to refuse your request under section 17(h) of the Local
Government Official Information and Meetings Act (LGOIMA) because we
believe it is frivolous or vexatious.   This decision was not made
lightly. Your request is deemed frivolous and vexatious as it lacks any
public value; the apparent aim of the request seems to be to cause
disruption, irritation, or distress to the Council and/or its staff.

If you are not satisfied with the Council’s response, you have the right
to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman. Information on how
to make a complaint is available at [2]www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or by
freephone on 0800 802 602. 
 
Yours sincerely, 
Legal Services Officer

Subject: Re: LGOIMA request - Content of warrants webpage and Warrants
Administrator - Olivia Bennett - Reference: 3073

 

Dear LGOIMA,

 

I haven't seen yet this webpage (https://
tasmandc.sharepoint.com/sites/sfLegAndDem/SitePages/Warrants.aspx) so I
cannot tell what content is on that webpage. In that case I would kindly
ask to get a copy (or screenshot) of the full webpage so that I can read
through the entire page, same to what someone can read when having a
password and going to the webpage
[7]https://tasmandc.sharepoint.com/sites/sf...

 

I hope this clarifies. Thank you very much.

 

Kind regards,

Olivia Bennett
