Auckland District Health Board

Dear Julie Hands,

 

I need to let you know the Auckland DHB will need an extension of the 20
working days within which we are required to respond to official
information act requests. To enable the DHB to respond with the necessary
information the extension we are seeking is a further 10 working days.

I know your request was made 4 December 2013, however the request
coincided with a number of other requests and the period for response has
coincided with the Christmas and New Year holiday season. A number of key
staff have been on leave and this has led to the delay in providing a
response.

 

If you are unhappy with this, I should let you know that you can complain
to the Ombudsman. But I trust you will understand the situation and we aim
to get the response to your request to you as soon as possible.

If you want to discuss this further, feel free to call me.

 

 

Regards

 

Gilbert

Julie,

Apologies. The person who was dealing with this is on leave and I wasn't aware that there had already been a request for an extension. I'll have a better idea later today or Monday on whether we can get our response to you by 20 January. Once I know this can I get back to you. We'd aim to get the response to you by the 20th.

Regards

Gilbert
