Alex Harris made this Official Information request to Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment

The request was successful.

From: Alex Harris

Dear Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment,

Section 96 of the Immigration Act 2009 requires carriers en route to New Zealand to provide specified information to Immigration. The information required is specified in section 4 of the Immigration (Carriers' Information Obligations) Regulations 2010, and includes personally identifying information on passengers, including their name, date of birth, gender, nationality, and travel document information. I would like to request the following information under the OIA:

* How long personally identifying information on passengers en route to New Zealand is retained by Immigration New Zealand;
* what precautions Immigration New Zealand uses to protect this personally identifying information from loss, unauthorised access or modification, or other misuse;
* what other agencies it is shared with or disclosed to, and the legal authority for such sharing or disclosure;
* any privacy policy which applies to the collection, storage, use and disclosure of this information.

I would prefer to receive an electronic response. Queries about this request will be automatically forwarded to me by the fyi.org.nz website.

With regards to s12 of the OIA, I am an NZ citizen and in NZ.

Yours faithfully,

Alex Harris
