Dear Mr Battle,
I am writing in regard to your official information request dated 15 August 2020 seeking information
related to the Uniflats and the Sustainability Neighbourhood.
The Official Information Act requires that we provide the information for your request no later than
20 working days after we received your request (due 11 September). Unfortunately, it will not be
possible to meet that time limit and I am therefore writing to notify you of an extension under
section 15A(1)(b) of the Act.
The extension is due to the time needed to complete consultation and collation in the preparation of
the response. I am thus advising that the response wil now be provided no later than 1 October (15
working days). I have specified this timeframe to ensure there is sufficient time to prepare the
response however, I will endeavour to provide the information in advance of this date.
I note your right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman about this extension under
section 28(3) of the Official Information Act.
Yours sincerely,
Claire Gallop
Manager, Policy and Compliance, Office of the Registrar
