Tēnā koe David Seymour,
On The Platform you explicitly claim that the IRD is a criminal organization. As a Member of Parliament, as a Minister of the Crown, claiming that an entire Government Department is "criminal" is a serious accusation and I can't imagine this being said, in public, without some solid evidence.

I request all correspondence, or any other materials, that demonstrate this to be a true claim.
Ngā mihi,
