  • OIA 17.155 Retailer Complaints
    15 August 2018 By email: Dear Official Information Act #17.155 – Retailer Complaints 1. We refer to your request of 4 May 2018 where you asked the Commerce Commission (the Commission) for: 1.1 the product retailers who had received the most complaints from consumers for the calendar year 2017; 1.2 a spreadsheet listing the number of complaints for each retailer; and 1.3 details about the complaints for each of the top three retailers. 2. On 8 May 2018, you clarified 1.1 of your request by limiting it to the 50 retail traders who had received the most complaints under the Fair Trading Act 1986 for the period from 1 January 2017 to 30 April 2018 (Top 50 retailers). 3. On 21 May 2018, we extended the date by which the Commission must decide your request to 4 July 2018. 4. On 4 July 2018, we advised you that we had decided to grant your request and the information would be provided by 15 August 2018. This was because some retailers had asked for their information before it was released and we thought it was procedurally proper to share the information with them first, so that they were equipped to respond to media queries. Our response 5. Attachment A to this letter contains a list of the 51 retail traders about which the Commission has received the most complaints under the Fair Trading Act 1986 for the period from 1 January 2017 to 30 April 2018. The list includes the number of complaints for each trader. 6.

  • JMAD New Zealand Media Ownership Report 2013
    JMAD New Zealand Media Ownership Report 2013 Published: November 28, 2013 Author: Merja Myllylahti This New Zealand Ownership Report 2013 published by AUT’s Centre for Journalism, Media and Democracy (JMAD) outlines how the financialisation of New Zealand media intensified as News Limited pulled out of Sky TV, and as lenders took 100 percent control of MediaWorks. In 2013, controversy erupted when it was revealed that a journalist’s phone records had been handed to a ministerial inquiry without her consent. The move was condemned by over 300 journalists as the government’s invasion of privacy was seen as a threat to media freedom. The government also passed legislation giving extra surveillance powers to the Government Communication Security Bureau (GCSB). This represented an institutional threat to journalistic autonomy. The report also finds that the bloggers and blogosphere gained prominence and influence in relation to the commercially driven mainstream media. In October 2013, there were 280 ranked blogs in New Zealand, and the top political blogs recorded high visitor numbers. Key events and trends concerning New Zealand media ownership Financial institutions take control of Sky TV and MediaWorks MediaWorks goes into receivership, keeps losing content rights Bauer media grows in influence, buys The Listener and other magazines Sky TV stirred, but not shaken by the Commerce Commission and new competitors Leading newspapers stall paywalls, local papers launch them APN and Fairfax newsrooms shrink, profit boosted by asset sales and job cuts This New Zealand Media Ownership Report is the third published by AUT’s Centre for Journalism, Media and Democracy (JMAD).
