Good afternoon Natalie,

I refer to your official information request dated 13 August 2018 for the cost of UNESCO Global Geopark application.

The Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act requires that we advise you of our decision on your request no later than 20 working days after the day we received your request. Unfortunately, it will not be possible to meet that time limit and we are therefore writing to notify you of an extension of time to make our decision, to September 14.

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.

Enjoy your day and thank you for your patience.

Many Thanks,
Vanessa Vidallon

Good afternoon Natalie,

 

Please see attached table of expenses.

 

Please note that the application cost is an approximation. It would also
cover the balance for expenses involved in the Italy Conference and some
production costs for the New Zealand application only.

 

Have a good day!

 

Many Thanks,
