Statistics on New Zealand citizens deprived of their citizenship

Alex Harris made this Official Information request to Department of Internal Affairs

The request was successful.

From: Alex Harris

Dear Department of Internal Affairs,

The Citizenship Act 1977 allows the Minister of Internal Affairs in certain exceptional circumstances to deprive a New Zealand citizen of their citizenship. I wish to request the following information under the OIA:

* How many times in the last five years has the Minister deprived a New Zealand citizen of their citizenship under s16 of the Act;
* How many times in the last five years has the Minister deprived a New Zealand citizen of their citizenship under s17 of the Act.

In both cases I would like a breakdown by year.

I would prefer to receive an electronic response. Queries about this request will be automatically forwarded to me by the fyi.org.nz website.

With regards to s12 of the OIA, I am an NZ citizen and in NZ.

Yours faithfully,

Alex Harris
