Tēnā koe Mr James
 
I refer to your request of 6 April 2021 for the following information:

 

I am requesting information in relation to persons returning to New
Zealand from overseas.

If a person had a active warrant upon entry to New Zealand what is the
protocol as there is a mandatory 14 day quarantine period.

Are the persons arrested at the border and bailed till a later court date?

Are they arrested and held in the cells for 14 days of the quarantine and
if so what precautions are taken to ensure staff and other prisoners are
kept safe and no risk of infection?

Are they arrested at the border and sent into the 14 days at hotel
quarantine? If so are they held in police custody at the hotel do the
department of corrections hold custody?

 

I have been asked to advise you that Police requires an extension of time
in which to respond to your request, pursuant to section 15A(1) of the
Official Information Act (OIA). Specifically, section 15A(1)(b),
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 14 May 2021 to provide a substantive response to your
request.

 

You have the right, under section 28(3) of the OIA, to make a complaint to
an Ombudsman about this extension.

 

If you wish to discuss any aspect of your request with us, including this
decision, please feel free to contact
