Subject: Official Information request - Record-keeping Intervention

Dear Archives New Zealand Te Rua Mahara o te Kāwanatanga,

In its response to me dated 11 September 2017, Archives says it has received 43 formal requests for intervention since introduction of the Public Records Act. Archives says "[a]lleged failure to create a full and accurate record has also been identified as an issue”.

Among the 43 formal requests for intervention, how many of those requests related to the alleged failure to create a full and accurate record?

After requesting Archives’ intervention, how many requestors received the full and accurate record they were seeking to obtain?

How many requestors failed to obtain the full and accurate record they were seeking, despite your intervention, and what were the reasons for that failure?

Please send me all communication – both formal and informal – relating to record-keeping that Archives has had with the Justice Ministry since the introduction of the Public Records Act. Please also provide me with the details of the formal complaint it received in regards to the Ministry of Justice which was referred to in Archives’ response of 11 September 2017.

Yours faithfully,

Ross Francis
