Tçnâ koe Mr T Baker

 

I am writing concerning your Official Information Act request below, to
advise that responding to your request as currently framed would require
review of a significant amount of information. As such, it is likely that
your request will be refused under section 18(f) of the OIA, as it would
require substantial collation and research.

 

Accordingly, I am seeking your agreement to refine your request to be for:

        “Please provide the following information relating to the
Christchurch Call:

1.       Dates, location, purpose of travel of all most significant travel
associated with the Christchurch Call for all personnel associated with
Christchurch Call including Special Envoy.

2.       Total costs for each financial year associated with travel.

3.       If there is any future travel planned, breakdown of the estimated
cost (budget) for those itineraries.”

 

Please confirm if you are happy to proceed with the refined request above,
by Friday 7 June 2024. If we do not hear from you, we will proceed with
your original request.

 

Please note, any clarification or amendment of a request is considered to
be a new request for the purpose of calculating the maximum statutory
timeframe for response (section 15(1AA) of the OIA refers).  

 

Ngâ mihi

Tēnā koe Mr T Baker

 

We refer to your official information request of 27 May 2024 for:

“Please provide the following information relating to the Christchurch
Call:

1.       Itinerary (dates, location, duration, who was traveling etc) of
all travel associated with the Christchurch Call for all personnel
associated with Christchurch Call including Special Envoy. For each
itinerary please identify the role of the individuals involved.

2.       Costs associated with each separate itinerary including breakdown
of flights, accommodation, food and other related items.

3.       If there is any future travel planned, breakdown of the estimated
cost (budget) for those itineraries.

 

Above information is requested for the period since Christchurch Call was
initiated until now, including any future travel planned.”

 

On 5 June 2024 you agreed to refine your request to be for (please note
correction of one small typo in question 1):

“Please provide the following information relating to the Christchurch
Call:

 1. Dates, location, and purpose of the most significant travel associated
with the Christchurch Call for all personnel associated with
Christchurch Call including Special Envoy.
 2. Total costs for each financial year associated with travel.
 3. If there is any future travel planned, breakdown of the estimated cost
(budget) for those itineraries.”

 

Thank you again for taking the time to consider the scope of your request
and agree to this refinement.

 

We have transferred your request in part to the Department of the
Prime Minister and Cabinet (DPMC). Part of the information to which your
request relates to travel paid for by DPMC is believed to be more closely
connected with the functions of DPMC (section 14(b)(ii) of the OIA
refers). In these circumstances, we are required by section 14 of the
Official Information Act to transfer your request.

 

You will hear further from DPMC concerning that part of your request.
