Tçnâ koe Adam Ward,

 

Thank you for your email received 3 August 2021, under the Official
Information Act 1982. Your request has been forwarded to the appropriate
officials at National Office to respond. You can expect a decision as soon
as reasonably practicable, and in any case not later than 20 working days
after the day on which the request was received.

 

The information you have requested will likely contain Ministry employee
names and contact details. We need to consult relevant Ministry employees
before deciding whether we can release this information to you, and this
will take additional time and effort.

 

If you do not need the names of Ministry employees who are below tier 4
and/or who are not decision-makers, please advise us as soon as possible
and we will treat your request as amended accordingly. 

 

In any event, the Ministry will make and communicate to you a decision on
your request as soon as reasonably practicable, and within the statutory
maximum time limits – including the extension of time limits (Section 15A
of the Act).
