Dear INZ OIAs,

Kia Ora Alex, thanks for checking this OIA request. It appears that due to the non HTML/plain format of the FYI website boxes, there appears to be a confusion in the question 2.
In the question 2 I had given a sample response that says for the month of July 2023, ten (10) case officers were assigned, for August 2023, twelve (12) case officers were allocated. etc.

I would like to rephrase the question 2 here

Question 2 :- I want the number of case officers assigned ( including forecast) to work on parent category for the months of July 2023 to December 2024.

2. Also, I would like to draw your attention to my other OIA request . It is delayed. The extension letter mentioned that I would be getting a response by 28 March 2024 but there was no reply on the said date and we are in April now. I have left a note in that OIA too but there is no response.

Could someone have a look at this OIA too ?

Yours sincerely,
