than 20 working days. If you'd like to calculate the timeframe, you can

Due to the COVID-19 global pandemic response, the Ministry is experiencing
significantly higher volumes of queries and requests for information. This
means we may take some time in responding to your request. The Ministry

OIA responses considered to be of public interest:
