I thought I had already replied to this requesting some clarification but I cannot find my request for clarification on the FYI.org.nz website.
My request for clarification was:
1) Is the data in appendices 2,3, 5, and 6 based on calendar year or financial year?
2) If the data is not financial year, please provide me with the data in appendices 2,3, 5, and 6 by financial year.
Yours sincerely,
Ti Lamusse
