Kia ora Richard, 

I’m the LGOIMA Business Partner who’s looking into your official
information request
My name is Ashleigh and I’m a LGOIMA Business Partner at Auckland
Transport.

I’m responsible for looking into the official information request you made
on 5 August 2024 for correspondence between Auckland Council and Auckland
Transport regarding the PTC2W project.

The LGOIMA requires that we let you know our decision on your request no
later than 20 working days after the day we received your request.
Unfortunately, it won’t be possible to meet that time limit and we are
therefore letting you know of an extension of the time to make our
decision, to 17 September 2024, or sooner. 
 
This extension is necessary because it is a large amount of information
which we need more time to review, and external consultations with
Auckland Council are also necessary to make a decision on your request.
Therefore, a proper response cannot reasonably be made within the original
time limit.
You are able to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of this
decision. Information about how to make a complaint is available
at [1]www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802 602. 
 
If you need to provide us with more information relevant to your request
or you have any questions, simply reply to this email leaving the subject
line as it is. We’ll make sure this information is added to your case.

Kia ora Richard,

 

On 2 September 2024, I advised you that we needed to extend our decision
on your request because of the large amount of information and external
consultations.

We have collated all the information we hold and are now consulting with
external parties regarding the release of the information. Unfortunately,
this is taking longer than I anticipated and I need to further extend our
decision until 23 September 2024, or sooner.

 

I apologise for the further delay.

 

You are able to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of this
decision. Information about how to make a complaint is available
at [1]www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802 602.

Thank you for your patience while we worked on your request.

 

I’ve attached the official information you asked for

On 5 September 2024 you asked for correspondence between Auckland Council

Westmere Improvements project.

 

I have attached a response from Mark Banfield - Group manager of
Infrastructure Project Delivery, Infrastructure and Place.

 

Unfortunately, the file containing the requested documents is too large to

file.

Could you email [1][email address] with you case

you?

 

Should you believe that we have not dealt with your request appropriately,
you are able to make a complaint to the Office of the Ombudsman in
accordance with section 27(3) of the LGOIMA Act and seek an investigation
and review in regard to this matter.

You can contact the Ombudsman at [2]www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or
