Kia ora,

 

I refer to your official information request below.

 

The Official Information Act requires that we advise you of our decision
on your request no later than 20 working days after the day we received
your request. Unfortunately, it will not be possible to meet that time
limit and we are therefore writing to notify you of an extension of the
time to make our decision, to 6 September 2018.

 

This extension is necessary because request necessitates a search through
a large quantity of information and meeting the original time limit would
unreasonably interfere with our operations.

 

You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of
this decision. Information about how to make a complaint is available at
www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802 602.

 

If you wish to discuss any aspect of your request with us, including this
decision, please feel free to contact me.

 

Ngā mihi,

 

William Blackler | Private Secretary (Advisory) | Office of Hon Shane
Jones

Economic Development
