Dear Mr Gordon

 

Before we have your request begin the review process, in order to satisfy
itself that you are eligible under section 12 of the Official Information
Act 1982, Police requests that you provide supporting information as to
eligibility. This could be your New Zealand postal address, personal email
address indicating a NZ domain, NZ phone number on which I can contact
you, or any identity documentation. I would be happy to receive further
information by post or email.

[ ]

For your information, Police relies on the following guidance provided by
the Ombudsman:

With requests submitted by post the origin of the request will usually be
clear from the post mark, and the requester will normally provide a return
address, which should provide sufficient assurance that the requester is
in New Zealand, and therefore eligible.

 

If a request is made by email or over the internet, agencies are entitled
to ask reasonable questions to check whether the person is eligible to
make a request.
