Thank you for your OIA request transferred from the Department of the

Regarding the inter-agency Pacific Geostrategic and Security Governance
Group, I

would like to request the following information:

This email confirms receipt of your request and advises that we will
respond to it as soon as reasonably practicable, and in terms of the
timeframes and requirements of the OIA.

 

Please also be advised that the organisational impacts of implementing the
COVID-19 Protection Framework, together with the Ministry’s leadership of
the Government's response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, mean that we
may have reduced capacity to process OIA requests. We will do our best to
make decisions on your OIA request as soon as practicably possible, and to
keep you informed of progress if there are likely to be delays.

 

For your information, the Chief Ombudsman has published updated guidance
on OIA requests during this time:

times during implementation of the COVID-19 Protection Framework

·       [2]FAQs about official information requests during COVID-19

Kia ora,

 

I am writing concerning your OIA request below. This email is to advise
that we will need to extend the time limit for responding to you by 10
working days, to 15 July 2022. This is because consultations necessary to
make a decision on your request are such that a proper response cannot
reasonably be made within the original time frame (section 15A(1)(b) of
the OIA refers). 

However, if this process is completed before 15 July 2022, the response
will be sent to you as soon as possible.

 

For your information, the Chief Ombudsman has published updated guidance
on OIA requests during this time:

•             Chief Ombudsman's statement on official information response
times during implementation of the COVID-19 Protection Framework

•             FAQs about official information requests during COVID-19

 

If you have any questions, you can contact us by email at: DM
[1][email address]. You have the right to seek an investigation and
review by the Ombudsman of this decision by contacting
[2]www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802 602.
