Dear Ministerial Services Team,

I wish to draw your attention to Section 18B of the Offical Information Act 1982.

If a request is likely to be refused under section 18(e) or (f), the department, Minister of the Crown, or organisation must, before that request is refused, consider whether consulting with the person who made the request would assist that person to make the request in a form that would remove the reason for the refusal.

While I am rejecting your rationale for declining the information, how many types of agreements does EQC hold for earthquake settlements?

Yours sincerely,

Luke Chandler
