Dear Harris,

 

I am writing to acknowledge receipt of your Official Information Act

information:

 

"I seek any information you hold relating to the importance of local
contractors in delivering emergency management responses in Aotearoa.

Specifically I am interested to know:

with directly employed public servants as proposed by the Leader of the
Opposition."

 

We will endeavour to respond to your request as soon as possible and in
