Andy Mitchell made this Official Information request to Chris Penk

This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for Andy Mitchell to read recent responses and update the status.

From: Andy Mitchell

Kia ora,

Could you please provide me with any advice or information (additional to the Proposal Report and the Submissions and Board Recommendations Report which are available on the Toitū Te Whenua Land Information New Zealand website) which was considered by Land Information minister Hon Chris Penk in considering the proposal to change the name Petone to Pito One, which it was announced yesterday has been rejected by the minister?

Please also provide any correspondence between the Minister (or his office) and Land Information New Zealand and/or the New Zealand Geographic Board regarding this proposal and decision.

Ngā mihi,

I placed this request six weeks ago but have had no reply, not even to acknowledge receipt. Can you please advise when I can expect to receive the information I have requested?

On behalf of Hon Chris Penk, thank you for your correspondence.

While Minister Penk considers all correspondence to be important, and
every message is carefully read and considered, it is not always possible
to reply personally to all emails.  As such, the following guidelines
apply: 
 
If you are a constituent in the Kaipara ki Mahurangi electorate getting in
touch about a local issue, please email
[1][email address] and the electorate office team will get
back to you.
 
Invitations and meeting requests will be considered as soon as possible,
and a staff member will be in contact with you in due course.
 
If your email message falls outside of Minister Penk's portfolio
responsibilities, expresses a personal view, or is copied to multiple
Members of Parliament, your correspondence will be noted and/or
transferred to another office.
Requests for Official Information and requests made under the Privacy Act
will be managed in accordance with the provisions of the Official
Information Act 1982 and Privacy Act 2020 respectively.
 
Thank you, again, for taking the time to write.
