When did MPI first have iPhone 6s in use by any staff

Andrew Crow made this Official Information request to Minister for Primary Industries

The request was successful.

From: Andrew Crow

Dear Minister for Primary Industries,

I am interested in understanding more about the speed at which MPI embraces new technology.

On September 25 2015 Apple released the iPhone 6s.

When did MPI first take delivery of an iPhone 6s and how many are now in use by MPI?

And also which 5 staff were first to have an iPhone 6s? I am interested in job title, not name of staff member.

FYI, I am making this same request to some other departments.

Yours faithfully,

Andrew Crow
