Hi Amber

Lakes DHB is unable to meet the original time limit to answer your OIA about SMO hours as you have asked for a large amount of information and it would unreasonably interfere with our operations

Pursuant to clause 15A of the Official Information Act due to the time required to collect and collate the requested information the Lakes DHB is requiring an extension of time until 22 April 2022.

Cheers
