Dear New Zealand Police

The deadline for answering my OIA request is now past. According to the Ombudsman's calculator my request should have been answered by April 24th at the latest. Can I please have an immediate update on the status of my request, or will I have to complain to the Ombudsman?

Yours sincerely,
Luke Ellis
