On behalf of Hon James Meager, thank you for your correspondence. Please
note that this acknowledgement is an automatically generated email.

While the Minister considers all correspondence to be important, and every
message is carefully read and considered, it is not always possible to
reply personally to all emails. As such, the following guidelines apply:

If you are a constituent in the Rangitata electorate getting in touch
about a local issue, please email [email address] and
the electorate office team will get respond to you.

Invitations and meeting requests will be considered as soon as possible,
and a member of the office will be in contact with you in due course.

If your email message falls outside of Minister Meager’s portfolio
responsibilities, expresses a personal view, or is copied to multiple
Members of Parliament, your correspondence will be noted and/or
transferred to another office.

Requests for Official Information and requests made under the Privacy Act
will be managed in accordance with the provisions of the Official
Information Act, which may include transfer to a more relevant Minister or
agency.

Thank you for taking the time to write,

Kind Regards
