Response
---------/ clip /-------------
The expert advisory panel was comprised of five members, including chair Charlotte von Dadelszen. Members were selected for their skills, expertise and knowledge of working in sectors that interact with the operations of the Public Works Act including land acquisition and disposals, infrastructure asset management, engineering, treaty negotiations and local government.
Further information on the panel, including the Terms of Reference and a bio on the members, can be found online at https://www.linz.govt.nz/our-work/projec... works-act-review.
The panel advice paper has been withheld in full under section 9(f)(iv) of the Official Information Act, as it is still under active consideration by the Minister for Land Information.
We are of the view the withholding of the information is not outweighed by the public interest to make that information available.
