Tçnâ koe Mr. Ge,

Thank you for your email received 4 October 2022, under the Official Information Act 1982. Your request has been forwarded to the appropriate officials at National Office to respond. 

In some cases where the information you have requested will likely contain Ministry employee names and contact details, we will need to consult relevant Ministry employees before deciding whether we can release this information to you, and this will take additional time and effort.

If you do not need the names of Ministry employees who are below tier 4 and/or who are not decision-makers, please advise us as soon as possible and we will treat your request as amended accordingly. 

In any event, the Ministry will make and communicate to you a decision on your request as soon as reasonably practicable, and within the statutory maximum time limits – including the extension of time limits (Section 15A of the Act).

Kia ora Mr Ge,

I am writing to you regarding your request for information below. This letter is to advise you that the Ministry has received your request, however requires more time to respond to this request. In accordance with section 15(1) and 15A of the Official Information Act, the Ministry’s decision will be with you no later than 29 November 2022.

The reason for the extension is that 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.

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 0800 802 602.

If you wish to discuss any aspect of your request with us, including this decision, please feel free to contact [MSD request email]

I will respond to you sooner if I am able to.

Ngâ mihi,
