Tçnâ koe Lance O'Riley,

Thank you for your email received 8 March 2023, under the Official Information Act 1982. Your request has been forwarded to the appropriate officials at National Office to respond. 

In some cases where the information you have requested will likely contain Ministry employee names and contact details, we will 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).
