Use and release of information

The information provided in submissions will contribute to MBIE’s continued development of the BuiltReady scheme rules. We may contact submitters directly if we require clarification of any matters in submissions.

Your submission will also become official information, which means it may be requested under the Official Information Act 1982 (OIA). The OIA specifies that information is to be made available upon request unless there are sufficient grounds for withholding it. If we receive a request, we cannot guarantee that feedback you provide us will not be made public. Any decision to withhold information requested under the OIA is reviewable by the Ombudsman.

Please set out clearly in the cover letter or email accompanying your submission if you have any objection to the release of any information in the submission and, in particular, which parts you consider should be withheld and reasons for withholding this information. MBIE will take such objections into account and consult with submitters when responding to requests under the OIA. 

Private information

The Privacy Act 1993 establishes certain principles with respect to the collection, use and disclosure of information about individuals by various agencies, including MBIE.

Any personal information you supply to MBIE in the course of making a submission will only be used for the purpose of assisting in the continued development of the BuiltReady scheme rules.

Please clearly indicate in the cover letter or email accompanying your submission if you do not wish your name or any other personal information to be included in any summary of submissions that MBIE may publish.
