To whom it may concern
Thank you for your email of 5 September 2023 requesting information relating to the
Trees
That Count – Greatest Goal project.
The Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) wil not be able to respond within the timeframe set
out in the Official Information Act 1982 (OIA) as consultations necessary to make a decision
on your request are such that a proper response cannot reasonably be made within the
normal 20 working day time limit.
MPI wil reply to your request by no later than 24 October 2023, earlier if possible.
Should you have any concerns with this extension, I would encourage you to raise these with
the Ministry for Primary Industries at
[email address]. Alternatively, you
are advised of your right to also raise any concerns with the Office of the Ombudsman.
Contact details are: Office of the Ombudsman, PO Box 10152, Wellington 6143 or at
[email address].
Yours sincerely
Michelle Morehu
