Introducing the Official Information Bill to Parliament in 1981, the Minister of Justice called it 'one of the most significant constitutional innovations to be made since the establishment of the Office of the Ombudsmen in the early 1960s" Its goals were lofty: to 'increase progressively the availability of official information' in order to promote democratic participation, political accountability and good government. Yet to hear some of the criticisms of the Official Information Act 1982 (OIA) now, one could be forgiven for wondering whether it has been much of an improvement over the Official Secrets Act 1951, which made releasing official information an offence. 'Ministers and officials developed ways of routinely subverting the provisions of the Official Information Act', researcher Nicky Hager has written. 'Journalists complain processing of requests takes to long, and accuse bureaucrats of abusing the system, especially if the material sought is remotely embarrassing or controversial', wrote investigative journalist Amanda Cropp. 'It is ridiculously easy to circumvent the act and to hide information from requesters and Ombudsmen alike', wrote former MP Michael Laws recently: 'Of course, all potentially embarrassing information is routinely refused and time delays are simply de rigueur.

When the 1982 Official Information Act (OIA) became law in New Zealand it ushered in a new era of open, transparent governance which has since developed in a keystone of the nation's democracy. However, nearly 30 years later, the purposes of the Act and its constitutional role have come under threat as government agencies and Ministers alike increasingly utilise the Act improperly and illegally to further their political interests. This paper seeks to elucidate the contemporary state of official information law in New Zealand and expose the dire state of the Act's operation at present. In light of this state of affairs, this paper then turns to look at the new proposal and policy approach the Office of the Ombudsman announced in early 2016. The strategy the Ombudsman intends to utilise to address the current problems facing the Act is an example of a 'results-based accountability model', an approach of public sector management which has become relatively common over the past few decades. However, while these models can have notably positive effects on internal management and performance, when the Ombudsman's proposal is analysed against the theoretical framework of a successful results-based model it becomes apparent that there is a significant disparity. The Ombudsman's specific proposal is incapable of being implemented as a results-model should be and indeed the particular context of the OIA's operation in government agencies is largely incompatible with some of the fundamental aspects of such a regime. As such concerning position of official information in New Zealand will remain effectively unaddressed so long as the Ombudsman continue to pursue their current policy.

The New Zealand Official Information Act 1982 is frequently hailed as one of this countrys most significant constitutional reforms. It is praised as world-leading in its refusal to contemplate that any category of government information might be completely immune from the prospect of public disclosure. But for those who work with the Act, either as seekers of information or as officials responding to requests, it is not an unqualified good - the working reality of the Act can be frustrating and time-consuming, just as often as it is enlightening. This book follows a two-year research project into the day-to-day operation of the Act. It examines the history of the Acts passage and subsequent development and reports the candid views of (anonymised) officials, politicians, academics, political advisers and regular seekers of Official Information. The result is a free and frank picture of the operation of administrative and political processes around Official Information. It carries a sobering message about how those process, if not well-managed, can erode trust in government across time. But the picture is not all bleak. The book concludes with proposals for change designed to build on the very real strengths of the system, to help it cope with the challenges of modern politics and the information age.
