Remember that document Casey Costello came up with, that contained all
those ideas favourable to the tobacco industry? Now the chief
archivist has found her guilty of breaching rules for handling
misterial information in the way she dealt with it <https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/casey-costello-breached-public-records-act-over-tobacco-policy-document/LOZKLKXTO5DLJNGGUCDUJRSZAY/>.

Nobody is yet owning up to where it actually came from:

rCLNeither the Associate Minister nor the ministerrCOs office staff
had been able to confirm who had written tobacco policy notes that
were held in the ministerrCOs office in paper form and used for
ministerial purposes,rCY chief archivist Anahera Morehu said.

She told Costello that rCLin the case of the tobacco policy notes,
you and your office did not meet the requirementrCY of the Public
Records Act to create and maintain full and accurate records.

rCLThe absence of information about the source of the notes, which
contributed to policy formation, diminished their value as records
for enabling government accountability.rCY

Morehu recommended CostellorCOs office seek help from Ministerial
Services to improve record-keeping and report back within three
months on her actions.

Costello still seems reluctant to admit she did anything wrong:

A spokesperson for Costello told RNZ the minister had stated
numerous times the document was a collation of previous NZ First
policy positions and it was only received as a hard copy.

Collated by whom?

Costello said the document was given to her in hard copy on
December 6, 2023, just after she took up the Associate Health
portfolio, with responsibility for tobacco and vaping policy.

Given by whom?
