The Methodist Church need to respond to you within 20 working days under the Privacy Act

Once the Methodist Church of New Zealand has approved your request and passed it on to their National Archivist, you should receive a response within 10 working days. However, it will probably take longer than 10 working days for them to send you your records.

The National Archivist at Kei Muri Māpara – Methodist Church of New Zealand Archives will make a copy of the records and send it to you.

If they cannot provide you with copies of your records, they must explain why (for example, if some of your records have been lost or destroyed).
