Emails and meeting minutes exchanged between Norfolk Island Regional Council and Australian Government officials between December 2021 and October 2024 regarding Air Chathams Airlines' international aviation services connecting Auckland, New Zealand and Norfolk Island. Documents include Emergency Management Team minutes from December 2021 noting Air Chathams' booking commencement for late January 2022 services, contingent on New Zealand border reopening to fully vaccinated travellers from Australia on 16 January 2022. A subsequent October 2024 email from council staff to a Department official forwards correspondence about Air Chathams' Norfolk Island air service and includes an attached assessment report on the New Zealand market. Significant portions of both documents are redacted under exemptions relating to personal information and business-in-confidence material.
