Draft version of Research Paper 0380

Jake Preston made this Official Information request to Toka Tū Ake – Natural Hazards Commission

The request was partially successful.

From: Jake Preston

Dear Earthquake Commission,
In a letter dated 08 November 2010, Hugh Cowan wrote to David Kelly of the Department of Building and Housing. In the letter he stated that a sixty page draft document had been developed. This is entirely at odds with a previous OIA response from Renee Walker that stated EQC had no requirement for drafts or revisions to be provided to EQC. Clearly for Hugh Cowan to hold a draft document at 08 November 2010 indicates that EQC had some requirement to be provided with drafts of this document.

I request that all drafts of research paper 0380 be provided, as clearly the response from Renee Walker was, at best, in error.

Further the same letter from Hugh Cowan states "organisations and individuals briefed to date ... reportedly are very positive about the potential of a future guidance document." I request all papers and minutes and any communications between EQC, its employees, contractors and agents, the EAG, and any staff or contractors associated with the support of the EAG, that relate to the briefings provided to parties outside EQC or the EAG, on the work related to research paper 0380.

Yours faithfully,

Jake Preston

Dear Mr Preston

 

On behalf of the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment I
acknowledge your email of 17^th July 2018 requesting under the Official
Information Act 1982 (the Act), the following:

 

In a letter dated 08 November 2010, Hugh Cowan wrote to David Kelly of the
Department of Building and Housing. In the letter he stated that a sixty
page draft document had been developed. This is entirely at odds with a
previous OIA response from Renee Walker that stated EQC had no requirement
for drafts or revisions to be provided to EQC. Clearly for Hugh Cowan to
hold a draft document at 08 November 2010 indicates that EQC had some
requirement to be provided with drafts of this document.

 

I request that all drafts of research paper 0380 be provided, as clearly
the response from Renee Walker was, at best, in error.

 

Further the same letter from Hugh Cowan states "organisations and
individuals briefed to date ... reportedly are very positive about the
potential of a future guidance document." I request all papers and minutes
and any communications between EQC, its employees, contractors and agents,
the EAG, and any staff or contractors associated with the support of the
EAG, that relate to the briefings provided to parties outside EQC or the
EAG, on the work related to research paper 0380

 

Your request has been transferred to the Ministry from the Earthquake
Commission on 3^rd August 2018 and is being processed in accordance with
the Official Information Act 1982. A response will be sent to you in due
course. If you have any enquiries regarding your request feel free to
contact us via email [1][email address] or using the contact details
