Tēnā koe Zachariah Davis,

 

Thank you for your email received 27 March 2020, under the Official
Information Act 1982. Your request has been forwarded to the appropriate
officials at National Office to respond. You may expect a decision
regarding your request to be sent to you as soon as possible.

 

The Ministry is focussing its resources on supporting New Zealanders

unprecedented time.  Resources within our business units, where

reprioritised.  As such, there will be a delay in you receiving a response
from the Ministry.

 

Thank you for your patience and understanding during this time.
