Advice on national policy statement on natural hazards

Alex Harris made this Official Information request to Ministry for the Environment

The request was successful.

From: Alex Harris

Dear Ministry for the Environment,

In Parliament's annual review of the Ministry, it mentions that "The ministry told us that it is considering a national policy statement on natural hazards, which is likely to include sea-level rise". I would like to request the following advice under the OIA:

* all formal advice on a national policy statement on natural hazards from the last year. This includes cabinet papers, briefings, and aid memoires, but excludes emails.

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
