Ministry of Health

Dear Ms Butcher

Thank you for your request for official information, received on 10th July
2018, requesting:

"I would like to request the Ministry of health to provide all
documentation, bills, acts, laws, and any other documentation in regards
to hemp and its classification.
All sub factors of hemp. ie. Hemp leaves, hemp stalk, hemp root, hemp
powder, hemp seed."

The request as it stands is likely to be declined under section 18(f) of
the Official Information Act 1982, because the information requested
cannot be made available without substantial collation or research.

It has been proposed that you further refine your request by asking for a
more specific sub-set of material, so that an answer to your request can
be made possible.
It is your decision whether or not to refine.

It is also important to note that "...bills, acts, laws..." on this topic
are all publicly available information, so this part of the request would
be refused under 18(d) of the Act.
If you choose to amend your request, it's advised that you remove this
part.
You have the right, under section 28 of the Act, to ask the Ombudsman to
review my decision to seek refinement of this request.

All my best
