Tēnā koe,
Official information request
Thank you for your Official Information Act 2020 (OIA) request of 25 November in which you
ask for any report compiled or contributed to by an Intelligence Analyst (or similar role) over
the period 1 January 2020 to 25 November 2021 that includes the term "Critical Race
Theory".
The New Zealand Security Intelligence Service does not hold any report compiled by an
Intelligence Analyst (or similar) including the term Critical Race Theory. As such, I must refuse
your request under section 18(e) of the OIA, as the information you have requested does not
exist.
If you wish to discuss this decision with us, please feel free to contact
[email address] or [NZSIS request email].
You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of this decision.
Information about how to make a complaint is available at
www.ombudsman.parliament.nz
or freephone 0800 802 602.
Yours sincerely
Rebecca Kitteridge
Te Tumu Whakarae mō Te Pā Whakamarumaru
