Mr. John McKeon:

The Office of the Data Protection Commissioner gave us one extension of four weeks and then we wrote in to say we really needed an extra extension and that if we did not get that extension, we were reserving the right to look for due process. Then the Data Protection Commissioner gave us the extension.
