Tçnâ koe,

 

Thank you for contacting the [1][Ministry of Justice request email] mailbox at the
Ministry of Justice.  

 

This automatic message is to confirm we have received your email - we hope
to acknowledge you and advise next steps within two working days.  

Official Information Act requests can take up to 20 working days to
receive a response.  If the Ministry needs more time, we will inform you.

However, over the holiday period in December and January there is a three
week period that does not count as ‘working days’, that period is 25
December to 15 January, inclusive. That means any OIA requests submitted
on 27 November or later may take a bit longer than you expected.

 
Please note that this mailbox is not monitored on weekends, public
holidays or between 17:00 and 08:00 hours on working days.
 

Ngâ mihi,

Communications and Ministerial Services | Corporate Services

Tçnâ koe John Luke,

 

Thank you for emailing the Ministry of Justice (the Ministry).

 

We acknowledge receipt of your request under the Official Information Act
1982. 

 

This has been forwarded onto the relevant business unit to respond to. 

 

The Ministry may publish the response to your request on our website.  You
can expect that if your OIA is to be published that this will take place
at least 10 working days after the response has been sent you. Your name
and any other personal information will be withheld under Section 9(2)(a)
(protect the privacy of natural persons).

 

 You can expect a response by 29/01/2026. This response date takes into
account the OIA summer holidays which are between 25 December 2025 – 15
January 2026. 

 

 

Ngâ mihi
