Subject: Official Information request - Can the nominator request the citation drafted by the honours unit?

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
