Kia ora Mr Francis

 

Thank you for your request for official information. You have requested:

Copies of all information held about the Royal Commission into Genetic
Modification which was established in 2000. This includes all information
transferred by DIA, and any other government agency, to Archives. The
information covers the period 1 January 2000 to 16 April 2000.

 

Access to the public archives held by Archives New Zealand is administered
through the Public Records Act 2005. I am therefore refusing your request
under section 18(d) of the Official Information Act 1982 (OIA) as the
information is publicly available.

 

A listing of the Royal Commission on Genetic Modification records held by
Archives New Zealand is available through our online finding aid Archway
([1]www.archway.archives.govt.nz).  The agency code for this Royal
Commission is ACBZ and the detailed record list can be found under the
‘records’ tab within series 8035.

 

To access these records, you may either visit our Wellington Reading Room,
or request copies online through our remote reference service. You can
also make a request through our ‘Ask an Archivist’ form:
[2]https://archives.govt.nz/search-the-arch.... I have
not forwarded your current request to our Research Services team as we
require an email address through which to contact you directly.  

 

To view these records in person, you must have a reader’s card, which can
be obtained free of charge by visiting any of our reading rooms (Auckland,
Wellington, Christchurch or Dunedin) and registering with photo ID. You
can pre-register online by following this link:
[3]https://archives.govt.nz/search-the-arch...

 

Cost recovery charges apply for copies of archives provided through our
remote reference service.

 

You have the right under section 28 of the OIA to seek an investigation
and review by the Ombudsman of this decision. Information about how to
make a complaint can be found at [4]https://www.ombudsman.parliament.nz/
or freephone 0800 802 602.

 

Ngā mihi
