Dear P,
Official Information Act request: Communications
Thank you for your email of 25 October 2024, in which you requested, under the
Official Information Act 1982 (the Act), communications. Specifically, you requested:
I request all communications in any forms between you, your staff in the
employ of Ministers Services and representatives of the Council of Licensed
Firearm Owners in New Zealand organisation in September 2024.
In response to your request please refer to the table appended, which details the
documents in scope of your request and my decision on their release. Please note,
some information has been removed as it is out of scope of your request, and some
withheld under the following provisions of the Act:
• section 9(2)(a) to protect privacy of natural persons
In withholding information under section 9(2(a), I have considered the public interest
and do not consider it outweighs withholding the information at this time.
If you are not satisfied with this response, you have the right to make a complaint to
the Ombudsman under section 28(3) of the Act. The Office of the Ombudsman may
be contacted by email to [email address] or by phone on 0800 802
