May 2024. You requested:
Please provide key advice and correspondence since 1 October 2023 between
yourself and MBIE and DOC as well as to the Ministers of Finance, Minister of
Regional Development , and the Minster of Conservation on the administration ,
receivership and future liquidation of RAL.
I have decided under section 15A of the Official Information Act to extend the time limit
for deciding on your request by an additional 15 working days. The new due date for
responding to your request is 8 July 2024.
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.
