Thank you for your email of 23 January 2024 to the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment
(MBIE) requesting, under the Official Information Act 1982 (the Act), the fol owing information:
Please supply all communications from 1 May 2023 between MBIE, Calibre, Chapmann Tripp, PTL,
WHL which includes the terms dataroom or "data room" - when searched case insensitive.
I am writing to advise you that MBIE will provide a response but needs to extend the time available to
answer your request. MBIE’s response wil be sent to you no later than 14 March 2024.
The reason for the extension is that consultations with various third parties 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 or this response, or if you require any further assistance,
please contact
[email address].
You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of our decision to extend the
time limit. Information about how to make a complaint is available at www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or
freephone 0800 802 602.
Nāku noa, nā
