Dear Peter Kelliher,

Hi Peter how is this progressing?

Surely this is information that's readily available? Given consents such as this are monitored, I would hope anyway? This information has been reported in the past.

Can you please update me on the progress as the time delay here seems unnecessary for the information requested.

Yours sincerely,

Mark Wilson

Hi Mark,

I apologise again for the delay in responding to your request. The process has taken longer due to a processing oversight on my part and due to the request period covering three separate resource consents for the Shotover plant.

We are compiling the data as a priority and expect to have it to you by the end of this week.

Kind regards,

James
