Dear New Zealand Transport Agency,

 

Snapper, when tagging on and off indicates whether the user is:

 

a) Connect

 

b) Child

 

c) Normal Adult fare

 

This is visible to everyone in the bus on either the public transport
onboarding or departing the bus.

 

Please provide the impact assessment that was done re:

 

a) Privacy

 

b) Human rights

 

Around the functional analysis of the Snapper system when both introduced
and maintained given the evolution of laws.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Miss M Quicken
