Dr Brian Roche's trip to Las Vegas
Victoria Muninn made this Official Information request to Ministry of Health
This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for Victoria Muninn to read recent responses and update the status.
From: Victoria Muninn
Dear Ministry of Health,
I request from Dr Brian Roche a fulsome (as is possible) description of his 2010 trip to Las Vegas with then Prime Minister's chief of staff, Wayne Eagleson, Mark Unsworth and Roger Sowry.
In the context of Covid, and given the aforementioned persons' clients and pecuniary interests, I believe that this OIA has great public interest and has implications for the national security of Aotearoa-New Zealand.
Yours faithfully,
Victoria Muninn

Dear Victoria,
I refer to your request for information made to the Ministry of Health on
3 October 2021 and subsequently transferred by the Ministry to NZ Post.
You requested: from Dr Brian Roche a fulsome (as is possible) description
of his 2010 trip to Las Vegas with then Prime Minister's chief of staff,
Wayne Eagleson, Mark Unsworth and Roger Sowry.
I confirm that Brian Roche's visit to Las Vegas in 2010 was unconnected
with NZ Post and that NZ Post does not therefore hold any information
concerning that trip.
Kind regards,
OIA Officer
NZ Post
