Thank you for your Official Information Act 1982 (OIA) request of 11 October, 
regarding requesting information about returning offenders from overseas 
  
Corrections needs to extend the timeframe of our response to your request by 20 
days working days, pursuant to section 15A(1)(b) of the OIA, as consultations 
necessary to make a decision on the request are such that a proper response to the 
request cannot reasonably be made within the original time limit.  Therefore, you can 
expect to receive a response to your request by 7 December 2020. If you no longer 
require this information please let us know as soon as possible. 
 
Please be advised that should you have any concerns regarding this response you 
have the right to ask the Ombudsman to investigate our decision to extend the 
timeframe. Contact details are: Office of the Ombudsman, PO Box 10152, Wellington 
6143.
