Subject: Official Information request - Oil Exploration

 

Dear Megan Woods,

 

As Grant Robertson and this government collapse the New Zealand economy
and ruin this country.

 

Please provide any analysis done on doing ten years of oil exploration
that New Zealand could complete and what this might do to alleviating the
National Debt and enabling the New Zealand economy to bounce back.

 

Are there any moratoriums/signed contracts whereby New Zealand has signed
away our access to the trillions of oil reserves around New Zealand.  For
example

 

- by New Zealand entering agenda 2030 what countries if any have access to
oil around the country

- are there any penalties associated with contractual agreements if New
Zealand was to begin oil exploration

- what would be the tax take on oil exploration for ten years and the
impact on oil prices for kiwis who have had there lives destroyed by this
incompetent government

 

Yours faithfully,

Chuck
