Dear Government Services,
Thank you for your notification that the response time has been extended.
Are you able to elaborate why this response needs consultation and who with? I would have thought this would be information internal to Kāinga Ora which would be readily accessible in 20 working days. I note the Ombudsman has previously made rulings that internal sign out is not considered consultation under the Act.
Yours sincerely,
Penelope Lighthouse
