Better Responses to natural disasters and other emergencies
Alan Thompson made this Official Information request to Kris Faafoi
The request was refused by Kris Faafoi.
From: Alan Thompson
Hon Chris Faafoi
The Minister Civil Defence
Dear Minister,
In early June 2017 the then Minister for CD (Hon Nathan Guy) commissioned a review and report to address "Better Responses to natural disasters and other emergencies". This was as a consequence of apparent repeated and systemic failures impacting the response to major civil defence related emergencies. These included ChCh Earthquake, Pike River, Kaikoura Earthquake, and the Port Hills Fires.
The review team were tasked in the Terms of Reference to report to the Minister no later than 3 months from the date of the TOR.
Under the provisions of the Official Information Act I request the following information:
1. Copies of all the written submission tabled to the Review Team.
2. A copy of the final report as tabled to what is now your Office (Minister of CD).
Please note that I had previously requested this same information from Hon Nathan Guy and this request had been refused. I trust that you as the new Minister of CD will now be willing to release this information.
Thank you.
