    Dear Ash,
I refer to your request of 1 July 2025. As consultations necessary to make a decision on your request are such that a response cannot reasonably be given within the original time limit, the University has extended the time limit for your request until 27 August 2025 under section 15A(1)(b) of the OIA. We will respond to your request as soon as reasonably practicable.
You have the right to make a complaint to an Ombudsman if you are dissatisfied with this extension.
Yours sincerely,
