From: Margaret Mechum

Dear Tāmaki Redevelopment Company Limited,

I request under the Official Information Act 1982 electronic copies of all Board Meeting minutes for meetings held in 2016 and so far in 2017.

I am a New Zealand citizen and my preference is to communicate the FYI.org.nz website as it is a useful public repository of Official Information Act requests.

Yours faithfully,

Margaret Mechum

Dear Kris Lal,

Many thanks for your email.

TRC's constitution contains the following clause:

15.14 Minutes: The Board must ensure that minutes are kept of all proceedings at meetings of the Shareholders and of the Board. Minutes which have been signed correct by the chairperson of the meeting are prima facie evidence of the proceedings.

(source: http://www.tamakiregeneration.co.nz/site...)

Given the constitution of TRC directs that minutes must be kept I do not see how a refusal under 18(f) is reasonable.

What 'substantial collation or research' activity is required to entailed for a document that already

I invite TRC to reconsider the request. I will also be referring the matter to the Ombudsman.

Yours sincerely,

Margaret Mechum

Dear Margaret,

It would be necessary to consider whether the contents of minutes for each Board meeting encompassed by your request should be withheld under relevant sections of the Act; this would include reviewing the contents of any papers referred to in minutes.

Additionally, it would be necessary to consult with various parties, internally and externally, on the contents of the minutes were they scheduled for release. As your request encompasses 20 meetings of TRC's Board, I consider that this would amount to substantial collation or research that make the application of section 18(f) of the Act reasonable.

I would be happy to reconsider your request if you have a specific timeframe in mind.

Hi Margaret,

For the avoidance of doubt, the refusal grounds that TRC believes apply are the need to read and review the documents encompassed by your request to identify the information at issue (not in relation to any activities TRC would undertake in making a decision on whether to release).

As set out below, I would be happy to reconsider your request if you had a more specific timeframe in mind.

Regards,
Kris
