1. Initial Correspondence (February–March 2026)
Nigel Gray wrote to the Ministry for the Environment (MfE) about ship‑generated atmospheric emissions and their potential contribution to flooding intensification in New Zealand — a matter supported by international peer‑reviewed science.
This is a public‑safety issue, not a political one.
2. MfE’s Response (April 2026)
Through the Official Information Act (OIA), MfE revealed that:
In short:
The Ministry did not answer the scientific questions.
It produced a template designed to look like an answer.

3. Nigel’s Open Letter to the Prime Minister (May 2026)

This was a governance issue, not a portfolio query.
4. The Prime Minister’s Office Deflects (15 May 2026)
The PM’s office acknowledged the letter —
then redirected it back to the Minister for the Environment,
the same office responsible for the flawed process.

Tēnā koe Prime Minister,
I am writing to express my concern about your office’s decision to redirect Nigel Gray’s recent letter back to the Ministry for the Environment (MfE). This matter should not have been deflected, because the issues raised are systemic, not portfolio‑specific.
The OIA responses released by MfE show that:
These are not minor administrative issues.
They are failures of process, transparency, and scientific integrity.
They are failures of process, transparency, and scientific integrity.
Redirecting the matter back to the same Ministry whose process is under scrutiny does not resolve the concerns. It avoids them.
As a member of the public, I expect:
New Zealanders deserve confidence that environmental risks — especially those relating to flooding intensification — are being assessed with professionalism, scientific rigour, and genuine accountability.
I look forward to your response.
Nāku noa, nā
