From: [User 80394] (Account suspended)

Dear Naenae College,

This is a request for information, made under ss 4 and 5 of the Official Information Act 1982 (“the Act”). I, therefore, would like the following information;

1. ALL images of toilet vandalism. These exist as some have been shown to staff and students in assemblies, etc.
2. ALL toilet vandalism assembly presentations. These exist as they were used in assemblies.
3. ALL internal correspondence related to the decision to hold an assembly with each year group regarding toilet vandalism.
4. ALL internal correspondence related to the decision to unlock the toilets due to vandalism.
5. ALL internal correspondence related to the decision to lock the toilets due to vandalism.

As your agency uses Google Workplace, you have access to 'Google Cloud Search,' which allows you to execute a workspace domain-wide search of all Gmail, Google Docs, Google Drive, Google Calendar, and Google Contacts stored on the College's accounts. You may need to contact I.T. to configure access.

Please CONFIRM receipt of this email to prevent unnecessary follow-up emails and extensions being requested.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As required by s12(1) of the Act, I am a New Zealand citizen. I will provide confirmation of this, if required. However, since all of our correspondence will be published on the FYI.org.nz site, I will only do so over the phone or email, with which you provide. This would only be for the purpose of citizenship confirmation, and nothing further related to this request.

As required by s13(c) of the Act, if this request “has not been made … to the appropriate department or Minister of the Crown or organisation or local authority”, it is your duty to give reasonable assistance to me to direct my request to the appropriate department or Minister of the Crown or organisation or local authority.

Further to the above statutory requirement, under s14 of the Act, if the information I seek is either not held or you believe it is more closely connected with another department or Minister of the Crown or organisation, or of a local authority you shall promptly, and in any case not later than 10 working days after the day on which the request is received, transfer the request to the other department or Minister of the Crown or organisation, or to that local authority, AND inform me accordingly.

As required under s15A of the Act, if you believe that a time extension is warranted for this request, you must under ss15A(2),(3) and (4) give notice to me of this extension within 20 working days after the day on which my request was received. In that notice, you should state; the period of the extension, give reasons for the extension and remind me of my right to complain to the Ombudsman under s28(3). Finally, the extension must be for a reasonable time, having regards to the circumstances.

As required by s18B of the Act, you must consider consulting me before refusing my request under the provisions of ss18(e) and (f) which relate to a document not being able to be found or existing or where substantial collation and research would be required for my current request.

As required by s19(a)(i), you must provide reasons if you refuse any parts of this request.

I will, if required, complain to the Ombudsman, as is my right under s28(3) of the Act, if any of the above statutory requirements on you are not complied with. Further to this, if your reply is not “as soon as reasonably practicable, and in any case not later than 20 working days after the day on which the request is received” as required under s15(1) of the Act, I will also complain to the Ombudsman.

This request is made through the site FYI.org.nz. All correspondence will be automatically forwarded to me through the site and published online immediately. I require, where appropriate, all electronic copies of all documents in your response. For more information on how the site works, please visit www.fyi.org.nz/help/about.

Yours faithfully,

Tēnā koe Naenae College,

Regrettably, I have yet to receive any communication from your institution in response to my previous correspondence. In light of your agency's appalling track record regarding Official Information Act (OIA) requests, I find myself harbouring unnecessary correspondence regarding the fulfilment of my ongoing requests.

In light of the aforementioned circumstances, it is with a sense of duty that I must inform you of my intention to refer this matter to the Office of the Ombudsman for their attention and intervention.

Nāku noa, nā
