Kia ora Michael
Your request below is "refused" under the Official Information Act as
follows:
"18Refusal of requests
A request made in accordance with [1]section 12 may be refused only for 1
or more of the following reasons, namely:
...
(e)that the document alleged to contain the information requested does not
exist or, despite reasonable efforts to locate it, cannot be found:" [emph
added]
i.e. RNZ simply does not compile lists of requests made by reporters as
your request envisages. I am sorry we could not be of help on this
occasion.
You have a right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of
this decision. Information about how to make a complaint is available at
[2]www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802 602.

Dear George Bignell,
Thank you for your response to my OIA request. Even a refusal can provide the public with a helpful insight into our public sector.
I understand that RNZ won't hold readily available lists of OIA requests made by its reporters. However, I do note that the Ombudsman has ruled/advised that public sector agencies and entities should make the effort to provide information in the format requested, and RNZ will hold a record of each request Mr Pennington has made during the time frame I requested.
Please can RNZ reassess its decision on my OIA request?
Yours sincerely,
Michael Riconosciuto
