Dear Kyle,
I refer to your request of 25 February 2024. As consultations necessary to
make a decision on your request are such that a response cannot reasonably
be given within the original time limit, the University has extended the
time limit for your request under section 15A(1)(b) of the OIA for 20
working days. The new maximum time limit for the University’s response is
23 April 2024; we will respond to your request as soon as reasonably
practicable. You have the right to make a complaint to an Ombudsman if you
are dissatisfied with this extension.
Yours sincerely,
Landon Watt
