Official information request: 3883384

 

I refer to your information request received 15 April 2018 which has been
referred to Legal Services for consideration in accordance with the
provisions of the Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act
1987 (“the LGOIMA”).

 

Information request

You have requested the following, and I quote:

 

“ … correspondence with any individuals or organisations regarding the
application for the license to occupy the whenua known as Te Karaka Tapu
Historic Reserve and the whenua referred to in the license to occupy
(issued by FNDC and contained in the information we are requesting) as
"The Island" and "Shippeys Reserve".

 

“ … all communications between FNDC and Police regarding the enforcement
of the license to occupy and any other related matters.”

 

“ … all information regarding the source of the absurd claim made by FNDC
that they, FNDC, have ownership and legitimate title to our whenua, our
wahi tapu, to tatou Karaka Tapu, he taonga o tatou matua tipuna, as
claimed in the purported license to occupy which was granted from 1 - 7
February 2018.”

 

Council response

 

A licence to occupy was not issued as you refer, however a permit to
occupy the land for a short term was granted. Please refer to the attached
zip file for a copy of the permit. Also provided within the zip file is
correspondence held by Council regarding the permit application including
communications between FNDC and the Police as held by Council. Pursuant to
section 7(2)(a) of the LGOIMA any reference to personal information
(outside of Council Officers) have been redacted. Also provided within the
zip file is documentation pointing to the classification of the land you
refer and the local authority with which the land vests.

 

Thank you for your enquiry.
