Key Solar Radiation Modification surveillance and policy and execution activities in NZ or internationally

Paul made this Official Information request to Ministry of Transport

The request was refused by Ministry of Transport.

From: Paul

Tena Koe Ministry of Transport

In February 2023 the UN published One Atmosphere: An independent expert review on Solar Radiation Modification research and deployment https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11... You will note from the report that the practice is widespread and that images within the document resemble NZ skies from time to time.

In relation to this UN report in particular, or Solar Radiation Modification research, policy or deployment as pertains to NZ domestic and international policy, diplomatic, or legal activities, would you please provide: (1) an explanation of how the responsibilities are managed within the framework of NZ government institutions and responsibilities (lead agency, terms of reference, public-private-partnerships, research relationships); (2) the relevant New Zealand policy direction or executive directions; (3) copies of surveillance and monitoring reports of relevant operational activities for the most recently available 12 months; and, (4) copies of any meeting minutes, commissioned research findings, or contractual relations for 2022-23 in relation to this subject.

Should this request prove quite sizeable, I am perfectly happy to receive the information in instalments as the information comes available.

Nga Mihi
