Kia ora Matthew,

On behalf of the Ministry of Transport, I acknowledge your Official Information Act request of 5 June 2021 seeking:

"Under the OIA, I request all information held by the Ministry of Transport about the incident on Auckland Harbour Bridge on Sunday 30 May, prior to, during and after the incident. (This media report refers: https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/cycling-pr... )

In particular, I am interested in what advance warning the Ministry had of the incident, and what actions were taken to encourage, deter, facilitate or prevent the incident. However, please note that my request is broad, and includes all information as stated.

I have made seperate requests for information to NZTA and the Minister of Transport and so this request does not cover information held by them. Nor should this request be transferred to them."

We will consider your request and respond appropriately as set out in the Official Information Act 1982.

The Ministry publishes Official Information Act responses on our website when there may be wider interest in the information released. This means the information provided to you might be published after you have received it.

Ngā mihi nui,

Subject: Official Information request - Ministry of Transport & 30 May Incident on Auckland Harbour Bridge

Dear Ministry of Transport

Under the OIA, I request all information held by the Ministry of Transport about the incident on Auckland Harbour Bridge on Sunday 30 May, prior to, during and after the incident. (This media report refers: https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/cycling-pr... )

In particular, I am interested in what advance warning the Ministry had of the incident, and what actions were taken to encourage, deter, facilitate or prevent the incident. However, please note that my request is broad, and includes all information as stated.

I have made seperate requests for information to NZTA and the Minister of Transport and so this request does not cover information held by them. Nor should this request be transferred to them.

Yours sincerely

Matthew Hooton
