IN-CONFIDENCE
Kia ora Monica,
 
I am writing to you regarding your request for information below. This
email is to advise you that the Ministry requires more time to respond to
this request.
 
In accordance with section 15(1) and 15A of the Official Information Act,
the Ministry’s decision will be with you by 19 June 2025.
 
The reason for the extension is that 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.
 
You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of
this decision. Information about how to make a complaint is available at
[1]www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or 0800 802 602.

decision, please feel free to contact [2][MSD request email]
