This extension is required consultations necessary to make a decision on your request are such that a proper
response cannot reasonably be made within the original time limit. Consultations between the relevant teams
have been affected by il ness in the Information and Records Management team, which has meant this request
has not been processed as fast as it would have been otherwise.
