Tēnā koe Pryce
 
I refer to your request of 3 September 2021 for the following information:

 

Recently (3/09/21) there was a fatal shooting by an "undercover police
officer" according to media reports after a suspect stabbed 6(?) civilians
in a countdown supermarket. I would like to request the subsequent report
of the officer following this incident.

I would also like to request the type of surveillance, time he was under
surveillance, why he was under surveillance and what prevented you from
arresting him prior to members of the public being injured.

I understand that some of this (type of surveillance) might not be able to
be released because of national security or whatever but would appreciate
whatever can be released.

 

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, 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 22 October 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
