Dear Chris Werry

 

I refer to you request for the following information:

 

Could you please provide me with the following statistics on an     annual
basis for the years 2009 to 2013 inclusive:
     * The total number of tip offs received from Crimestoppers    

* The number of tip offs received from Crimestoppers that resulted     in
an arrest
    
     Please could you also provide some commentary on the typical amount  
  of time NZ Police spend investigating a Crimestoppers tip off.

The purpose of this letter is to notify you that Police require an
extension of time in which to respond to your request, pursuant to section
15A(1)(b) of the Official Information Act 1982, because consultations
necessary to make a decision on the request are such that a proper
response to the request cannot reasonably be made within the original time
limit. Police require until 28 March 2014 to provide a substantive
response to your request. 

 

You have the right to complain to the Office of the Ombudsmen about this
extension.

 

Yours sincerely

 

 

Teresa McMahon

Dear Chris Werry

 

I refer to your official Information Act request of 21 February 2014 for
the total number of tip offs received from Crimestoppers that resulted in
an arrest for 2009 to 2013 inclusive.

 

Pursuant to section 15A of the Official Information Act 1982, I advise you
of the requirement to extend the time limit to respond to your request. 
The period of the extension is until 11 April 2014.

 

The reason for the extension is that the time required to research and
collate the requested information and for the consultations necessary to
make a decision on the request are such that a proper response cannot
reasonably be made within the original time limit.

 

You have the right, under section 28(3) of the Official Information Act
1982, to ask the Ombudsman to investigate and review my decision to extend
the time limit for deciding upon your request.
