Dear Brett W
 
Thank you for your email of 05 February 2018 to the Ministry of Business,
 Innovation and Employment requesting, under the Official Information Act
 1982 (the Act), the following information:
 
·        Could I please request the test certificate for the 2017
 Wellington Sky Show fireworks display and all other associated documents
 with this event.
 
This email is to advise you that your request has been transferred to
 WorkSafe NZ.
 
This is because your request is more closely aligned with the functions of
 the WorkSafe NZ.  Section 14(b)(ii) of the Official Information Act allows
 me to transfer any request that is believed to be more closely aligned
 with the functions of another department, organisation or Minister of the
 Crown.
 
I trust you find the information helpful.  You have the right to seek an
 investigation and review by the Ombudsman of this decision. Information
 about how to make a complaint is available at
 [1]www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802 602.
 
 
 
Yours sincerely,
Alan Witcombe
MANAGER, MINISTERIAL SERVICES

    Dear Brett
 
I refer to your email received on 8 February 2018 requesting:
 
•         Could I please request the test certificate for the 2017
 Wellington Sky Show fireworks display and all other associated documents
 with this event
 
This email is to notify you that WorkSafe New Zealand is partially
 transferring the highlighted part of your request to Wellington City
 Council (WCC) in accordance with section 14 of the Official Information
 Act 1982.
 
This partial transfer is occurring because the information you requested
 is believed by WorkSafe to be more closely connected with the functions of
 WCC.
 
Further correspondence on this request will therefore come to you from
 WCC. Please note that the time limit for responding will be 20 working
 days from when WCC receives this partial transfer from us.

    Dear Brett
 
Thank you for your request for information dated 8 February 2018, partly
 transferred to Wellington City Council by WorkSafe New Zealand on 22
 February 2018.
 
We understand that the part of the request that has been requested to us
 is for all other associated documents with the 2017 Wellington Sky Show
 fireworks display.
 
Given this is a significant event for us, we have identified that
 providing all documents associated with it would amount to substantive
 collation.
 
Are you able to help clarify the type of information associated with this
 event that you are interested in, in order to narrow the scope of your
 request?
 
Kind regards
Sarah

    Dear Brett
 
I refer to WorkSafe’s letter dated 7 March refusing your request for the
 Test Certificate for the Wellington Sky Show fireworks display on the
 grounds that they do not hold this document. Although this part of your
 request was not transferred to us, we do hold this document and
 accordingly please find the test certificate attached.
 
You have also requested all other documents associated with the Wellington
 Sky Show and this part of your request was transferred to us by WorkSafe
 on 22 February 2018. As outlined in my email of 2 March 2018, given this
 is a significant event for us, we have identified that providing all
 documents associated with the Wellington Sky Show would amount to
 substantive collation.
 
As required by section 17A of the Local Government Official Information
 and Meetings Act 1987 (LGOIMA), we have considered whether charging or
 extending the timeframe for responding to your request would help, and
 have concluded that neither option would relieve the burden on a small
 number of officers of putting together the information.
As required by section 17B of LGOIMA we have consulted with you, to see if
 you could refine or clarify your request. However, at this stage we have
 not heard back.
Accordingly we are refusing your request on the basis of LGOIMA section
 17(f) on the grounds that providing all documents associated with the
 Wellington Sky Show would amount to substantive collation or research. If
 you wish to discuss this decision with us, or are willing to change or
 refine your request, please feel free to contact me at the details below.
You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of
 this decision. Information about how to make a complaint is available at
 [1]www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802 602.
Kind regards
 Sarah
