Proactive disclosures
We proactively disclose information not published elsewhere on our website that we consider to be of material public interest and likely to be requested under the Official Information Act.
Information may be withheld from proactive disclosures where we consider it to be protected, such as:
- personal information
- trade secrets or commercially sensitive information
- information provided to the Guardians in confidence
- ‘free and frank’ expressions of opinion
- legally privileged information
- information which, if disclosed may prejudice negotiations or commercial activities or give rise to an improper gain or advantage.
Our reasons for withholding information from documents proactively disclosed are noted in the documents as applicable. Proactively released information will generally only include information in its final form.
