Dear Ministry for Primary Industries,

Requesting all documents produced in the last 18 months that contain information about the following issues:

1) Any plans the Ministry for Primary Industry has for research into humane pest management tools to control wild rabbits to replace the use of RHDV.

2) The amount of money MPI plans to invest in humane pest rabbit control over the next 5 years, (preferably year by year).

3) The organisations, researchers, and collaborators MPI has engaged with or who will MPI engage with to research humane pest rabbit controls.

4) The humane methods of pest rabbit control MPI are currently investigating and investing in.

Yours faithfully,
Sionelle Williams
