Kia ora,

In this list please include the name or position/job title of the person (or people) visiting, the country the visitor (or visitors) represent, the government department (or departments) the visitor/visitors represent, and the date of the visit (or a date range if the visit takes place over multiple days).

2. A list of gifts given to the Police or any individual employees of the Police by foreign government officials between January 1 2024 and the present. In this list please include a description of the gift given, the name of the foreign official who gave the gift, the official's position/job title if it is available, the country they represent, the government department they represent if any, and the date the gift was given (if an exact date isn't available, an approximation is fine).

I look forward to your decision on this request.
