Thank you for your earlier rescope. We just wanted to give you an update
on your request and let you know that at this stage our response will
likely be late as we work through completing it. The primary reason is
that we need to consult more widely than anticipated on the information.
Although we will endeavour to provide a what we can by the due date in a
partial response.

 

One thing that would be helpful is if you could please also narrow down
the scope of another section of your request: All communications (email,
text, phone, etc.) between the Ministry and the chair of the SSAG Sir
Peter Gluckman. Is there a particular topic or issue that you are
interested in that might be captured in those communications? Depending on
what you need, a narrower scope should mean we can provide you with
relevant material more quickly than we could as currently scoped by your
request.  

 

Thank you again for your assistance

Thank you again for your clarification. We will exclude administrative
emails. We are continuing to consult on the material that remains in scope
and are not able to respond to your request by the due date of today.
Please accept our apology for the delay. We will respond as soon as we are
able.

 

You specified you are interested in “communications relating to the
membership selection process including the selection and acceptance of the
chair”. We had interpreted your original request as for communication
between MBIE and the chair of the SSAG. Sir Peter Gluckman accepted the
position on 26 March 2024. As a result, we did not include communication
between MBIE and Sir Peter Gluckman before that date.

 

We have logged a new request for this communication. 
 

 Ngâ mihi nui,
