Kia Ora Mr Laing,
Further to your request under the Official Information Act dated 05

notice, in accordance with section 15A (1) (a) of the OIA, that NZ Post

We are extending the period in which to provide you information to 14
March 2023 but will endeavour to provide you with the information earlier

Kia ora Mr Laing

 

Apologies for the delay in responding to your request, some staff absences
contributed to the delay and I apologise that notification of our
requirement for an extension was also not sent out in time. This was an
oversight at our end.

 

Please find attached a spreadsheet outlining the payments made by NZ Post
to the UPU and APPU from 2018 – 2022. We have not provided data regarding
payments to the IPC as this a voluntary designated operator commercial
body in which NZ Post has chosen to participate on commercial terms and
the information is commercially sensitive, and therefore withheld under
section 9(2)(b)(ii) of the Official Information Act. You have the right
under section 28(3) of the OIA to complaint to the Ombudsman over our
decision to withhold this information.
