Thank you for your request of 20 February 2024, to Fire and Emergency New Zealand requesting
the following information under the Official Information Act 1982 (OIA):
1. Please can I request the CAD Incident Report for: F3914792, 14th February 2024,
Christchurch
2. Can you also include the names of any outside organisations that may have assisted on
scene, be that with catering, consultants or fire attack etc.
Fire and Emergency needs to extend the timeframe of our response to your request by 10 working
days, pursuant to section 15A(1)(a) of the OIA, as 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.
For this reason, you can expect to receive our response no later than 4 April 2024. We will
endeavour to respond sooner than this date if possible. If you no longer require this information,
please let us know.
You have the right, by way of complaint under section 28(3) of the OIA, to request an investigation
and review of Fire and Emergency’s decision to extend the timeframe by the Ombudsman.
Information about how to make a complaint is available at www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or
freephone 0800 802 602.
Nāku noa, nā
