Dear New Zealand Police,
I am seeking specific information data , or documentation over the use of what appears to be dozens of drones over
invercargil in the last year, to simplify my request , as a nz citizen I would like to request how many drones , have
been deployed over invercargil in the months of July August September 2021, by the Nz police, offcanz gscb or
whoever holds The information regarding my request, also any documentation data or information as to what their
use is for, I personal y have recorded and witnessed dozens of drones, flying or sitting idly in the sky for 20 plus
hours at a time, and certainly appear to be operated by law enforcement , are they being used for surveil ance , and
is this surveil ance legal.
Yours faithful y,
Wil iam Davidson
