Tēnā koe Chris
Thank you for your request of 7 February 2024, to Fire and Emergency New Zealand seeking
information on various topics. Your request has been considered under the Official Information
Act 1982 (OIA).
Fire and Emergency needs to extend the timeframe of our response to your request by 20 working
days, pursuant to section 15A(1)(b) of the OIA, as consultations necessary to make a decision on
the request are such that a proper response to the request cannot reasonably be made within the
original time limit.
For this reason, you can expect to receive our response no later than 5 April 2024. We will
endeavour to respond sooner than this date if possible. If you no longer require this information,
please let us know.
You have the right to ask the Ombudsman to investigate and review our decision to extend the
timeframe, and further information is available at www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone
0800 802 602.
Nāku noa, nā
