Dear Huda,

 

I am writing in regard to your official information request below which is
due today.

 

The Official Information Act requires that we provide the information for
your request no later than 20 working days after we received your request.
  Unfortunately, it will not be possible to meet that time limit and I am
therefore writing to notify you of an extension under section 15A(1) of
the Act.  The extension is due to the time needed to complete consultation
for the response. I am thus advising that the response will now be
provided no later than Friday 31 July (10 working days).  

 

I note your right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman
about this extension under section 28(3) of the Official Information Act.

 

Ngâ manaakitanga,

Claire

Dear Huda

 

We refer to our letter to you of 22 October 2020.  In that letter we noted
that we will endeavour to respond to you on the 4 remaining matters by 30
October 2020. Unfortunately, the staff member collating the information
for the remainder of your request has had to take an expected leave of
absence. Accordingly, there will be a short delay in us getting this
information to you.  We expect that we should be able to respond in the
next two weeks, but will touch base with you in the event that we require
longer. We thank you for your patience.

 

Kind regards

Mayhaka
