Jon Knox made this Official Information request to Ministry of Defence

The request was successful.

From: Jon Knox

Dear Ministry of Defence,

I see Lt Gen Tim Keating tweeted about the gift given to Prince of Wales on May 18 2017, which looks to be a book documenting the activities of the NZ Defence Force. https://twitter.com/CDF_NZ/status/865157...

I'd like to know the cost to produce the book.
The number of copies produced at NZDF expense.
The number of additional copies produced not on NZDF expenses.
The positions of those parties that were recipients on NZDF expenses.

Yours faithfully,

J.Knox
