Official Information Act request relating to Communications between DPMC and
Minister's offices regarding He Whenua Taurikura
Thank you for your Official Information Act 1982 (the Act) request received on 23 October
2024. You requested:
“ I request all communications between the Department of Prime Minister and
Cabinet and ministers offices related to He Whenua Taurikura research centre sent
and received since 23 September 2024. ”
I have decided to extend the time limits for deciding on your request by an additional 13
working days under section 15A of the Act. Consequently, the extended due date for your
response will be 10 December 2024.
The extension is required because of the consultations needed to make a decision on your
request. Despite the extension, a response will be sent to you as soon as possible.
You have the right to ask the Ombudsman to investigate and review my decision under section
28(3) of the Act.
Nāku noa, nā
