Dear Waikato OIA,
Thank you for your reply.
Unsurprisingly, I actually have that email and will be sending through and making contact today.
I am aware of the delicacy of my request, but anything to get Heidi home.
Yours sincerely,

Thanks for your concern and your notation, James B, this is very important to me and Im happy to comply at this stage. Whatever gets the job done... Im not sure if you have ever actually dealt with ombudsman before. It's a saga. Still waiting after 2 years regarding another one of my requests into the vicious data theft of my son's coronial reports.

"Agencies should only query eligibility if there is a genuine need to do so, and they should be mindful of their obligation to provide reasonable assistance to requesters."

It might be worth asking what that need is, or simply stating that you are a citizen in your request.
