SEPTEMBER 21, 2020

Rich Seager
[FOI #13579 email]

Dear Rich,

Official Information Act (OIA) request for information held by Netsafe.

I refer to your OIA request dated August 24, 2020. 

The OIA requires that we advise you of our decision on your request no
later than 20 working days after the day we received your request.
Unfortunately, it will not be possible to meet that time limit and we are
therefore writing to notify you of an extension of the time to make our
decision, to October 5, 2020.

This extension is necessary because your request necessitates a search
through a large quantity of information and meeting the original time
limit would unreasonably interfere with our operations at this time. 

You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of
this decision.

Information about how to make a complaint is available at
[1]www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802 602.

Regards,

Alex / Online Safety Consultant / Netsafe / 0508 638 723 /
