Dear New Zealand Transport Agency,

 

This request is for correspondence and documents related to what NZTA
terms "Grey" data items in the CAS Crash data and their removal from the
Open Data sets that NZTA publishes.

The fields: Crash factor, crash cause, exact time of crash, day of week,
fault, exact date of crash and movement code.

 

1. The original decision to remove the fields in 2016 I request the
correspondence and documents regarding any and all decisions pertaining to
the 2016 change to the open data csv files regarding not publishing "Grey"
data items in the revised Open Data, [with respect to those data that were
produced in the existing Open Data CSV files before that time].

 

2. The review in 2018/2019

I request the correspondence and documents regarding the review and
assessment of "Grey" data items, and the decision to not include them in
the Open Data in 2018/2019

 

3. Complaints about Grey data items by the public prior to 2016 I request
the number of Correspondence from the public to NZTA complaining about
confidentiality in Crash Open Data prior to 2016 that pertained to those
Grey data items that were removed. These should be grouped by year and
reason stated In the case of there being no such records, this should also
be reported.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Del Robinson
