If you need any more information from me to clarify my request please let me know as soon as possible. Please also let me know if you do not hold the information that I seek, but hold similar information, or are aware that another agency is likely to hold the information or similar information.

I understand that a decision on a request for information under the OIA must be made as soon as reasonably practicable, and in any case not later than 20 working days after receipt of the request.

I appreciate that, depending on how records are held by NZTA, this request may require some compilation or research. If it would assist NZTA in meeting my request I would be happy to discuss:
- receiving the information in tranches; and/or
- extend time for responding to one or more of the tranches.

Yours faithfully,

Ben
