Does anyone know how I can view these OBR files and if I can request the information in a common format, such as PDF or DOC?

"OBR files are text files containing the unique ID of the document in an Objective electronic document/records management system."

And indeed that's what you've got: a series of one line text files containing reference numbers, rather than the documents themselves. I doubt its deliberate, and I suggest you contact Southland Regional Council, point out the error, and ask them for the actual documents.

Dear Jarred Martin,

Thanks for your prompt response to my OIA inquiry.

However, it appears you have only provided me with a series of one line text files (.OBR) containing reference numbers, rather than the documents themselves.

If you could provide me with documents the files are referring to, I'd much appreciate it.

Yours sincerely,
Paul McMahon

Hi Paul,

Apologies for that, I will resend the documents through again.
