Good morning Mr Alan Thompson

 

Thank you for your request for information dated 10th May 2020, which was
transferred from Whakatāne District Council and received by the Bay of
Plenty Regional Council 2nd June 2020.

 

I wish to advise that the debrief process for the Whakaari / White Island
volcanic eruption response has not been completed as it was interrupted by
the need to respond to the COVID-19 response. As a result your request for
a copy of the official report is declined under Section 17(e) Local
Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987, on the basis that
the document containing the information does not exist. 

 

Your sincerely

Clinton Naude

Response Review

 

Dear Mr Naude,

In your response to this OIA request you advised:

"As advised in my email dated 29 June 2020 the debrief process for the
Whakaari / White Island volcanic eruption response had not been completed
as it was interrupted by the need to respond to the COVID-19 response. The
review has since been progressed and is scheduled to be finalised and
released in January 2021. We have noted to provide you directly with a
copy upon the release".

It is now well into March 20121 and I have not received a copy of your
review of your Whakaari response as per your advice that it would be in
January 2021..

Can you please confirm that this review is completed and advise when this
information will be released to me.

Yours sincerely,

Alan Thompson
