Dear Hamish,

Thank you for your email of 3 October 2024 requesting, under the Official Information Act 1982 (the Act), the following information:

"Under the Offical Information Act, I would like to requst a copy of any and all comunication held by you or your office (including but not limited to WhatsApp messages, slack messages, text messages, emails, signal mesages) mentioning the terms “loser,” sent or recived by yourself, your staff including your advisor, SPS, and any departamental staff or sent to the prime minister or his office."

On behalf of the Hon Andrew Bayly, I am writing to advise you that our office will provide a response but needs to extend the time available to answer your request. The response will be sent to you no later than 6 December.

The reason for the extension is that consultations necessary to make a decision on your request are such that a proper response cannot reasonably be made within the original time limit.

If you wish to discuss any aspect of your request or this response, or if you require any further assistance, please contact [email address]
You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of the decision to extend the time limit. Information about how to make a complaint is available at www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802 602.

Kind regards,

Office of Hon Andrew Bayly
