Adam
Email: [FYI request #25304 email]
Dear Adam,
Thank you for your email requesting the fol owing information under the Official Information Act:
1. Please provide all correspondence between government ministers and Cameron Slater (formerly of
Whale Oil blog and subject of the "Dirty Politics book)
2. Pease provide any information with regards to any meetings between Mr Slater and any government
ministers.
Responding in relation to my own knowledge and activity (as distinct from any other “government
ministers”, as sought in your OIA request): your request has been considered under the Official
Information Act 1982 and has been refused under section 18(e) of the OIA – the document alleged to
contain the information requested does not exist or cannot be found.
You have the right to ask an Ombudsman to review my decision on your request.
Yours sincerely
Hon Chris Penk
Minister of Building and Construction
Minister for Land Information
Minister for Veterans
Associate Minister of Defence
Associate Minister of Immigration
