Dear NRP
The current due date for a decision on your request is 6 March 2023.
Processing of your request continues, unfortunately the Prime Minister’s
Office is not presently in a position to finalise the decision by this
date.
Accordingly, we are seeking your agreement to extend the processing period
by 8 days. This will ensure sufficient time to finalise a decision on
access. This additional time would extend the due date for a decision on
your request to 14 March 2023. We will endeavour to notify you of the
decision prior to this extended date if possible.
If you agree to this request for an extension of time to process, we ask
that you confirm this in writing via return email by COB Monday 6 March
2023.
Kind regards

Dear Not Rex Patrick
The purpose of this email is to notify you the request you made under the
Freedom of Information Act 1982 (Act) covers a document which contains
information concerning a State and the Office is required to consult with
the State under the Act.
Where a consultation under section 26A is intended the Act provides an
extension of the processing period by 30 days (s 15(6)) in order to allow
the Minister time to consult with that third party. As a result the
extended due date of your FOI request is 3 April 2023.
Please write to the Office if you require a further update of your request
in the coming weeks, you can contact the Office via [1][email address]
Yours sincerely
