Dear Graham Carter,

The Department of Conservation has advised me that it has responded to you in relation to all three OIA requests you contacted me about on 15 October.

Responses were sent on 9 September, 5 October and 11 October.

These matters are of an operational nature, and for which the Minister of Conservation has no responsibility. If you wish to discuss them further, please contact the Department of Conservation.

Kind regards,

Subject: RE: Official Information request - Turangi National Trout Centre

Dear Andrew Ketels,

FAILURE TO RESPOND IN EXTENDED TIMEFRAME

We have requested an Official Info Request from your department and we stand by our allegations of corruption and collusion and have the evidence to support the allegation.

We would like to point out that by law you were required to have responded promptly to our request for information, which you have failed to do.

It would appear that your department is deliberately postposing this request and not responding with the required information, and we believe that certain parts of the information will be particularly embarrassing and are likely to reveal the high levels of corruption and collusion with regards the business sector of the community.

Our information request has been dragged out for well over 40 days, which is an extraordinary long time given the relevant simple nature of the questions we have asked.

Choosing to ignore this request does not mean that it will go away .
Your attention to this matter would be appreciated.

Yours sincerely,

Graham Carter
