Morena. I am requesting all correspondence, documents, data or analysis held by CIAL on community sentiment towards the proposed Central Otago Airport. Please provide anything you have on Central Otago residents (however narrow or wide the analysis) and Christchurch residents. And finally, anything which is more nation-wide.
Also all correspondence, documents, data or analysis held by CIAL on community (as opposed to visitor) travel patterns.

Dear CIAL Legal Team,
Thanks for your reply. In response to your second answer, I was asking you for detailed information about air travel (not road). Could I please have the correspondence, documents, data or analysis held by CIAL on this (as requested). Please do not just send me a link to your website or recently released 75 page document. I have both of those. I am asking for the information which is behind this, and correspondence etc.
This is not a new request of course.
Yours sincerely,
Sharon Beattie

CIAL believes it has complied with its statutory obligations with answering your request under the OIA. Where you have requested certain information, CIAL has directed you to such information.
You have clarified that your question related to air travel not road travel. Although it is unclear as to what you are meaning by "community" you can find summary information on air travel at pages 16-35 of the recently released report (which we note you now have a copy of) https://www.centralotagoairport.co.nz/up...
and the following information papers available on the project website:
https://www.centralotagoairport.co.nz/up...
https://www.centralotagoairport.co.nz/up...
In addition, the further information you are seeking out below is withheld under Section 9(2)(i) of the OIA; the release of certain information would disadvantage CIAL’s ability to carry out its commercial activities in relation to the Central Otago Airport Project.
As previously outlined to you, you have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of the decisions contained in our correspondence. Information about how to contact the Ombudsman or make a complaint is available at www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802 602.
