Advice to Minister of Immigration on Refugee Resettlement Quota

M Stephens made this Official Information request to Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment

The request was partially successful.

From: M Stephens

Dear Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment,

I would like to request under the Official Information Act:

* all departmental advice to the Minister of Immigration in last 18 months on New Zealand’s Refugee Resettlement Quota.

If any documents that fall within the scope of my request are to be
withheld in full then I would like the titles and dates of those
documents to be released. I would also prefer that if my request is
expansive enough to trigger a s18(f) refusal that I can be provided
with the titles/dates of the relevant documents so that I can focus
my request forwards particular documents.

Yours faithfully,

M Stephens
