Subject: ESOIA093 | Official Information request - Correspondence with principals on cellphone ban

Dear Erica Stanford,

Please supply all written correspondence, including the letters, emails, and text messages from school principals and teachers regarding the Government’s ban on cellphones in schools.

Given the minister has repeatedly said publicly she’s received a lot of positive feedback, I’d expect this information should not take long to collate.

Yours faithfully,

Jeremy

Kia ora Jeremy,

 

Thank you for your Official Information Act 1982 (the Act) request,
received on 30 April 2024.

 

The Official Information 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 19 June 2024 under Section 15A(1)(a).

 

We will endeavour to get this response to you as soon as possible.

 

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 [1]www.ombudsman.parliament.nz
