Dear Liz
Thank you for your request made under the Official Information Act, received on 16
May 2023. You requested:
...any internal emails or other correspondence relating to the Royal Commission
of Inquiry into Covid 19.
I have decided under section 15A of the Official Information Act to extend the time limit
for deciding on your request by an additional 10 working days. The new due date for
responding to your request is 28 June 2023.
The extension is required because of the consultations needed to make a decision on
your request.
This extension will also apply to the time limit for transferring your request, should this
become relevant.
Notwithstanding this extension, I undertake to decide on your request as soon as
reasonably practicable.
You have the right to ask the Ombudsman to investigate and review this decision.
Yours sincerely
John Beaglehole
Director, COVID 19 Royal Commission
