Tēnā koe
I write to request information held by Television New Zealand Ltd (TVNZ).
In line with TVNZ’s obligations under the Official Information Act 1982, could you please provide a copy of all correspondence between TVNZ (or its solicitors, counsel or agents) and NZME relating to the investigation by NZME station(s)/masthead(s) of the publicly reported alleged incident involving Ms Maiki Sherman and Mr Lloyd Burr at Parliament in 2025.
