Can the nominator request the citation drafted by the honours unit?

john luke made this Official Information request to Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet

The request was successful.

From: john luke

Dear Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet,

I understand once the honours unit received the nomination for a NZ Honours from the nominator, Honours Unit will draft a citation for the nominee and present for the committee to decide if to award the honours to this nominee. I would like to know can the nominator request the Honours Unit to send the drafted citation to the nominator to have a look? If it's possible, may I ask how can the nominator do that?

Yours faithfully,

john luke
