Tçnâ koe,

Before we begin processing your request, we require more information to establish your eligibility to make a request under the Official Information Act 1982 (OIA).

Per Section 12 of the OIA, to be eligible to make a request you must be:
• a New Zealand citizen
• a permanent resident of New Zealand
• a person who is in New Zealand

Please send documentation that confirms your eligibility to make an OIA request to [GCSB request email]. This could be a scanned copy of a New Zealand driver’s licence or passport or evidence of residency in New Zealand, such as a utility bill with your name/address.

Ngâ mihi,
GCSB

Kia ora Scott,

We refer to your official information request of 9 May 2022 for post-exercise report for the NCSC-led cyber threat response exercise Intensity.

The Official Information Act 1982 requires that we advise you of our decision on your request no later than 20 working days after the day you submitted your request. Unfortunately, it will not be possible to meet that time limit and we are, therefore, writing to notify you of an extension of the time to make our decision, to Wednesday 6 July 2022.

This extension is necessary because the consultations necessary to make a decision on your request are such that a proper response cannot reasonably be made within the original time limit.

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

You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of this decision. Information about how to make a complaint is available at www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802 602.

Ngā mihi
GCSB
