Good morning William,

I am currently looking to action your request - however there are no date parameters detailed in your request. Unfortunately I am unable to action an open-ended request.

Are you able to clarify what period you want this information for (12 months, 24 months, specific date range etc)? If you seek 12/24/36 months data can you please also specify the start date and/or finish date as some requestors seek calendar year information while others prefer financial year information.

I look forward to your response so I can action your request promptly.

Nāku noa.
