Thank you for contacting the office of Hon Paul Goldsmith, Minister for
Arts Culture and Heritage, Minister of Justice, Minister for State Owned
Enterprises and Minister for Treaty of Waitangi Negotiations.

 

The Minister considers all correspondence important and appreciates you
taking the time to write.  Please note that as Minister Goldsmith receives
a large amount of correspondence it is not always possible to personally
reply to all emails.

 

The following guidelines apply:

 

• Portfolio related correspondence will be considered and responded to
where appropriate

 

• If your message is for Minister Goldsmith's advice, or if you have
copied your email to another Minister and/or Member of Parliament with
more appropriate portfolio responsibilities, then this will be noted

 

• Invitations and requests to meet with the Minister will be processed as
soon as possible and a staff member will be in contact with you in due
course.  Please note this email is an acknowledgment that your
invitation/request has been received.

 

• If you have made a request for official information then this will
be managed in accordance with the provisions of the Official Information
Act 1982, which may include transfer to a more relevant Minister or agency

 

• If your email falls outside of the Minister’s portfolio
responsibilities, expresses a personal view, or is copied to multiple
Members of Parliament, then your opinion will be noted and your
correspondence may be transferred to another office, or there may be no
further response to you

 

• Media queries will be referred to the Minister’s press secretary

 

Again, thank you for writing.

Office of Hon Paul Goldsmith | Minister for Arts Culture and Heritage |
Minister of Justice | Minister of State Owned Enterprises | Minister for

Dear Hugh,

 

I refer to your official information requested dated 7 May 2024 for any
