Dear Andrew Riddell

I refer to your official information request below.

The OIA requires that we advise you of our decision on your request no later than 20 working days after the day we received your request. It will not be possible to meet that time limit and we are therefore writing to notify you of an extension of the time to make our decision to 20 April 2018.

This extension is necessary because the consultation required to make a decision on your request is such that a proper response cannot reasonably be made within the original time limit.

You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of this decision.

Information about how to make a complaint is available at www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802 602.

Yours sincerely

Joe
