(a)-(i) I refer the Member to my previous response to question without notice 386 answered on 28 November 2017. I will comply with any obligations imposed upon me by section 82 of the Financial Management Act 2006 , but I am of the view that my answers do not give rise to any obligation to give further notice under section 82 as the information requested is not “information concerning any conduct or operation of an agency” within the meaning of section 82.
