Dear J Devere,
REQUEST FOR INFORMATION
I refer to your request dated 12 October 2017, in which you requested all details
(including but not limited to internal memos, reports, contemporaneous notebook
entries of all attending staff and staff involved in the subsequent investigation to this
event, emails surrounding the investigation including with police public affairs
section, exhibit record sheets, and job sheets) with relation to the reported incident
where attending police left upper and lower AR15 receivers on the lawn of a firearms
dealer during a search warrant in Auckland in 2017.
I can confirm that Counties Manukau did not execute a search warrant, therefore
your request is being refused under the Official Information Act 1982 pursuant to;
(18) (e) which reads:
•
That the document alleged to contain the information requested does not
exist.
If you are not satisfied with my response to your request you have the right to
complain to the Office of the Ombudsman and seek an investigation and review of
my decision.
Yours sincerely,
Kirsten Calder
