Dear Spencer
I refer to your Official Information Act request received on 9 November 2025:
Anonymised EGHR Database Aggregates for Smart Meter Instal ations & Upgrades (2018–2025) -
a Official Information Act request to WorkSafe New Zealand - FYI
Under section 15A of the Official Information Act, WorkSafe has decided to extend the time limit
for deciding on your request by an additional 30 working days. This extension will also apply to the
time limit for transferring your request, should this become relevant.
This extension is required because your request requires a search through a large quantity of
information, and consultations are necessary before a decision can be made on your request.
You have the right to ask the Ombudsman to investigate and review this decision, and further
information is available a
t www.ombudsman.parliament.nz. If you require further assistance, please contact
[email address]. Yours sincerely
