Dear Mr Preston
Request for information
I refer to your Official Information Act 1982 (
OIA) request dated 1 December 2016 where you
requested the following:
“I would like to know the number of times that Southern Response, or its agents or
contractors, have used Engineered Resin on a property and the Engineered Resin
has travelled outside the boundary of that property that the engineered resin was
intended to be used on?”
Southern Response does not hold the requested information. Further, Southern Response
is not aware of any such instances through any channel which Southern Response could
reasonably be expected to have been alerted to such an issue if it existed. Accordingly, this
request is refused pursuant to section 18(e) of the OIA.
You are welcome to contact the Ombudsman about this decision. To do so, you can visit
their website -

Yours Sincerely
Kate Armstrong
Legal Risk Advisor
