2. Advise whether your request for official information was co-ordinated, or made in conjunction, with any other person/persons (as defined in section 2 of the Official Information Act), and, if so, disclose the name/names of these other person/persons.
3. Advise whether your request for official information was made at the instruction, request, or on behalf of any other person/persons, and if so, disclose the names of these other person/s.

Please provide the information specified above by email to [University of Auckland request email] by 21 September 2020. If you fail to satisfy the University of your eligibility to make a request under the OIA we may treat your request as withdrawn.

Your sincerely,
Rebecca Ewert

Dear Miss Sharma,

I refer to your request of 11 September 2020. The University has provided
all the information requested that can be provided without substantial
collation or research in the attached spreadsheet. It would take excessive
staff time to provide the information requested in Parts 5-9 and 12-13 of
your request, and the 2015-2018 data for part 10 of your request.
 Accordingly the University has refused these parts of your request under
section 18(f) of the Official Information Act. Neither extending the
deadline for your request nor imposing a charge would allow the University
to provide this information. You have the right to make a complaint to an
Ombudsman if you are dissatisfied with this response.

Yours sincerely,

Rebecca Ewert

University of Auckland
