Kia ora Chris

I refer to your official information request dated 5 September 2023 for:

1) a copy of any plans or drafts received and a copy of any reports/draft papers or internal documents that review them and/or identifies options or pathways to funding according to any provisions being developed to deal with incoming locality plans and resulting decisions
2) a copy of the procedure being used to process the draft locality plan of the Taikorihi Locality Partnership Group, a copy of the draft plan and any information that indicates its progress towards funding decisions or otherwise.

We have transferred part of your request to Te Whatu Ora | Health New Zealand (specifically, points one and two as set out above). The information to which your request relates is believed to be more closely connected with the functions of Te Whatu Ora. In these circumstances, we are required by section 14 of the Official Information Act 1982 to transfer your request.

This is a partial transfer as Te Aka Whai Ora will also separately respond to your request in respect of any information in scope that we hold.

You will hear further from Te Whatu Ora concerning that part of your request that has been transferred to them ([email address]). In the meantime, Te Aka Whai Ora will continue to progress its own response to your request.

Tçnâ koe Chris,

Thank you for your email received by Te Whatu Ora on 8 September 2023,
asking for the following under the Official Information Act 1982 (the
Act). Please see our response below.

“1) a copy of any plans or drafts received and a copy of any reports/draft
papers or internal documents that review them and/or identifies options or
pathways to funding according to any provisions being developed to deal
with incoming locality plans and resulting decisions
2) a copy of the procedure being used to process the draft locality plan
of the Taikorihi Locality Partnership Group, a copy of the draft plan and
any information that indicates its progress towards funding decisions or
otherwise.” 
 

This email is to let you know that Te Whatu Ora needs more time to make a
decision on your request.

The Act requires that we advise you of our decision on your request no
later than 20 working days after the day we received 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 6 November 2023, at the latest.

This extension is required 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.

Please note, while we have applied a 20 working day extension, we hope to
have a response with you shortly, as our response is currently going
through our internal approval process.

If you have any questions, please contact us at [1][email address]

If you are not happy with this extension, you have the right to make a
complaint to the Ombudsman. Information about how to do this is available
at www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or by phoning 0800 802 602.
