> Hi Chloe - Dick will be delighted to be involved I'm sure. Sorry you had no luck through website. We always like to get back to people asap. I'll forward this to him now and I'm seeing him tomorrow so will discuss and confirm. Can you tell me when would be best to film him for interview so I can check his diary? Thanks a lot. With kind regards

>   I am involved with group of young aspiring and student filmmakers who, with the support of a small Creative Communities grant, are currently filming a documentary called Democracy Don't Know Don't Care which looks at the issue of voter apathy and its causes within the context on the up and coming Auckland City Mayoral race.

>    
> 
>   As you may well know, turnout at the last election was only 45% in Auckland City. Banks won with only 43% of that turnout.

>   To my surprise this morning I heard that you have joined the race and as you are likely to be one of the top - now four - contenders. Hence we would very much like to interview you for the documentary. In a sense you've added a further layer of drama to the story.
> 
>    
> 
>   Your position as an advocate of socially responsible business practice would add an interesting perspective to the documentary.
> 
>    
> 
>   We have already interviewed Banks and Fletcher and are to interview Hucker next week.
> 
>    
> 
>   The documentary is using the mayoral race as its background narrative and example of modern day political culture and using the candidates as the voice of the politicians on the issue of democratic participation.
> 
>    
> 
>   An interview would take around 1 hour and would be divided between questions about your views on voting/democracy in NZ and questions about your campaign.
> 
>    
> 
>   We would supply the questions in advance and are flexible time wise.
> 
>    
> 
>   We would also like to film you 'on the campaign trail' as well if possible for cutaway material and get your reaction post election to the result.
