Kia ora

Due to the efforts we are all making across Government and Parliament to
manage and respond to COVID-19, processing your correspondence may take
longer than normal. We appreciate your patience at this time.

 [1]www.covid19.govt.nz for up to date, factual information.

Kia kaha

 

Thank you for contacting Hon Kelvin Davis, the Minister of Corrections,
Minister for Māori Crown Relations: Te Arawhiti, Minister of Tourism,
Associate Minister of Education (Māori) and MP for Te Tai Tokerau.

 

The Minister considers all correspondence important and appreciates you
taking the time to write. 

 

Please note that as Minister Davis receives a large amount of
correspondence, it is not always possible to personally reply to all
emails.

 

The following guidelines apply:

·          Invitations and requests to meet with the Minister will be
processed as soon as possible and a staff member will be in contact with
you in due course.

·          Media queries will be responded to by a staff member.

·          Requests for official information will be managed in accordance
with the provisions of the Official Information Act 1982, which may
include transfer to a more relevant Minister or agency.

·          If your email falls outside of the Minister's portfolio
responsibilities, expresses a personal view, or is copied to multiple
Members of Parliament, then your opinion will be noted and your
correspondence may be transferred to another office, or there may be no
further response to you.

·          If your correspondence is to the Minister as the Member of
Parliament for Te Tai Tokerau, this will be referred to the electorate
office.

 

(If your invitation or meeting request is accepted - please note
information about meetings related to the Ministers’ portfolios will be
proactively released (this does not include personal or constituency
matters). For each meeting in scope, the summary would list: date, time
(start and finish), brief description, location, who the meeting was with,
and the portfolio. If you attend a meeting with the Minister on behalf of
an organisation, the name of the organisation will be released. If you are
a senior staff member at an organisation, or meet with the Minister in
your personal capacity, your name may also be released. The location of
the meeting will be released, unless it is a private residence. The
proactive release will be consistent with the provisions in the Official
Information Act, including privacy considerations. Under the Privacy Act
1993 you have the right to ask for a copy of any personal information we
hold about you, and to ask for it to be corrected if you think it is
wrong. If you’d like to ask for a copy of your information, or to have it
corrected, or are concerned about the release of your information in the
meeting disclosure, please contact the sender. You can read more about the
proactive release policy at

Office of Hon Kelvin Davis
