Dear S Plummer,

 

I acknowledge receipt of your information request dated 01.05.16 received
by Police via the fyi website.

 

The request has been forwarded to this office for a response.

 

In order to satisfy myself that you meet the eligibility requirements
pursuant to Section 12 of the Official Information 1982, I request that
you provide information that you are a New Zealand citizen or permanent
resident or are in New Zealand, such as an address or email or phone
number on which I could contact you to confirm your eligibility.

 

You have requested information relating to a Police file in respect of a
fatal vehicle crash which includes personal information and circumstances
of the parties involved in this incident.  Police has not yet had an
opportunity to review the information it holds as to whether there are
interests that require protection from disclosure but, in respect of
personal information about third parties (including any deceased person),
it is likely to be withheld or redacted in the absence of authorisation
from the parties involved that their information may be released to you
and, specifically, via the fyi website, or in the absence of some other
reason you provide that might indicate a public interest in disclosure to
you outweighs any privacy interest.

 

You may consider it is more appropriate that the response to your request
on this occasion is sent to your private physical or email address.  If no
personal or sensitive information is to be released, Police will respond
via the fyi website; otherwise, Police will seek your preferred address.

 

I note that you have requested a Police Crash Investigation Report. 
Pursuant to section 211 of the Land Transport Act 1998, a prescribed fee
of $56.00 is payable for this report.  Please confirm you are prepared to
pay this amount.  Please be aware that information may need to be redacted
from this report.
