Dear Auckland Council,

I would like to request under the Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act some information from your council organization, the Ports of Auckland.

I would like to request all communication between the Ports of Auckland and its employees with the blogger Cameron Slater, who runs the Whaleoil blog. Can this please include all emails, comments, and any other correspondence with Cameron Slater.

If the Ports of Auckland runs an IT system that logs URLs when they are accessed I would also like records of all "hits" on the Whaleoil page.

I would also like to know whether there have been any meetings, or phone calls with Cameron Slater and the Ports of Auckland, and if so, the issues discussed during these meetings or calls.

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

Yours faithfully,

Joshua Grainger

Dear Auckland Council,

I would like to withdraw my request. I am now aware that the Ports of Auckland are not defined as a council-controlled organization, and thus do not fall under the LGOIMA.

Yours faithfully,

Joshua Grainger
