Papers surrounding Child Protection (Child Sex Offender Register) Bill
Joshua Grainger made this Official Information request to Ministry of Social Development
The request was partially successful.
From: Joshua Grainger
Dear Ministry of Social Development,
I would like to request under the Official Information Act some information relating to the Child Protection (Child Sex Offender Register) Bill, which I understand is part of the work being performed by the Vulnerable Children’s Board. I would like to request:
* any advice documents relating to the Child Protection (Child Sex Offender Register) Bill, including briefs, Cabinet Papers, Cabinet Minutes, regulatory impact statements, or other documents.
Please feel free to get in touch if you need any clarification.
I hope to use the information gained from this Official Information Act request to inform a submission on the Bill when it goes before Select Committee. I imagine this information would help me in making my submission: for example was the exclusion of those that view and produce child sex abuse material a purposeful decision, or an oversight?
Yours faithfully,
Joshua Grainger

Dear OIA_Requests (MSD),
You extended your deadline for responding to my OIA request until 19 October 2015. It is now the end of the business day for 19 October 2015.
Please immediately advise whether you are able to provide me with a copy of the documents requested. I requested these documents so that I could make a submission to the Social Services Select Committee on the Child Protection (Child Sex Offender Register) Bill. The deadline for submissions is 28 October 2015. If I do not receive a response very soon the purpose of my request will be defeated.
Yours sincerely,
Joshua Grainger

I have made a complaint to the Ombudsman and requested that the complaint be dealt urgently given the time sensitive nature of the request.
