Your request is being considered under the Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987
(LGOIMA).
This letter is to advise you that the Council needs to extend the due date of your response for 10 working
days, pursuant to section 14(1)(b) of the LGOIMA, 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 a response from the Council no later than
8 November 2024.
You have the right, by way of complaint under section 27(3) of the LGOIMA, to request an investigation and
review of WCC’s decision to extend by the Ombudsman. Information about how to make a complaint is
available at
www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802 602.
If you require further information, please contact
[email address].
Nāku noa, nā
