To the Government Communications Security Bureau,

There has been increasing global interest in Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP), with recent disclosures and discussions internationally, I am reaching out under the Official Information Act 1982 to request information held by the GCSB relating to UAP.

The GCSB's capabilities and responsibilities with signals intelligence and national security make obvious the valuable insights and data related to UAP the Bureau may hold.

Due to the sensitive nature of the GCSB's work, I am happy to receive information with sections redacted if necessary. If certain information requested is outside the GCSB's responsibilities or better held by another agency/entity, I would kindly appreciate a referral or guidance to the appropriate agency/entity.

I kindly request;

1. Signals Intelligence: Any records, analyses, or reports generated by the GCSB related to UAP sightings or encounters, including but not limited to, electronic signals or communications that have been attributed to or suspected to be related to UAP, from January 2010 to the present.

2. Inter-agency Collaboration: Details of any collaborations, communications, or information sharing between the GCSB and other New Zealand government agencies (e.g., NZDF, NZSIS, Civil Aviation Authority) regarding UAP, including any joint initiatives or investigations.

3. International Cooperation: Information on any engagements, communications, or cooperative efforts with international intelligence partners concerning UAP, particularly those involving Five Eyes alliance members.

4. Policy and Guidelines: Copies of any internal guidelines, policies, or protocols that outline the GCSB's approach to handling information, signals, or data related to UAP, including procedures for analysis, classification, and dissemination of such information.

Please reply if any clarification of my request is needed.

Thank you for reading my request.

Kind Regards.
