Dear Minister of Local Government,

I have had a rumor that there is a Cabinet Paper that has gone to Cabinet or is soon to goto Cabinet on the future governance of the Canterbury Regional Council. I would like to request under the Official Information Act:

a) a copy of the lastest three Cabinet Papers relating to future Environment Canterbury governance

b) if it is not contained in the answer to (a) a confirmatation that one of the options contained in the latest Cabinet Paper on ECAN governance is a continued full council of comissioners

c) if it not contained in the answer to (a) a confirmation that one of the options contained in the latest Cabinet Paper on ECAN governance is a mix of appointed commissioners and elected councillors

d) if it not is not contained in the answer to (a) a conformation that there is not an option explicitly in the latest Cabinet Paper on ECAN governance for a purely elected Regional Council

If any documents from request (a) are to be withheld I would like to request the titles and dates of these papers.

Feel free to contact me if you wish me to clarify my request.

Yours faithfully,

Joshua Grainger
