Otherwise, we will seek to respond to your request as soon as practicable and no later than 20 working days after the date your request was received (by 18 December 2024).

I refer to your request for information dated 20 November 2024 made under the Official Information Act 1982 (the Act). You have requested the mark and grade distributions for the FINC206, FINC202, ECON112 and ECON202 papers offered by the University of Otago in Semester 2 2024.

The Act requires that we advise you of our decision on your request no later than 20 working days after the date your request was received. Unfortunately, it will not be possible to meet that time limit. We are therefore writing to notify you, pursuant to section 15A of the Act, of an extension of the time to make our decision in respect of your request, by a further 10 working days - to 23 January 2025. Please note that "working days" are as defined the Act and exclude public holidays and the period between 25 December - 15 January.

This extension is necessary to allow for consultations necessary to make a decision on your request. We are currently working on your request, but as some of this information is not confirmed yet (e.g., special examinations are outstanding), we require some additional time to complete our response. We thank you for your patience and will endeavour to provide the information sooner if possible.

If you are not satisfied with our extension of time, you have the right to make a complaint to the Ombudsman under section 28(3) of the Act. However, we would welcome the opportunity to discuss any concerns with you first.
