Kia ora Malcolm,

I refer to your request of 27/05/2024 as per the below email.

I have been asked to advise you that Police requires an extension of time in which to respond to your request, pursuant to section 15A(1) of the Official Information Act 1982 (OIA). Specifically, section 15A(1)(b), 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.

Police requires until 02/07/2024 to provide a substantive response to your request, however we are endeavouring to provide this to you as soon as possible.

You have the right, under section 28(3) of the OIA, to make a complaint to an Ombudsman about this extension. If you wish to discuss any aspect of your request with us, including this decision, please feel free to contact [email address]

Kind regards,
Jonelle

Police's response to this request is over a month overdue, have you received a response from them somewhere else?

You may want to consider laying a complaint with the Ombudsman about this apparent unlawful delay. if it helps, I have a template I use when making complaints about overdue responses like this: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ad2Z...
