I refer to your request, transferred to Health New Zealand | Te Whatu Ora
on 2 May 2024, asking for the following information under the Official
Information Act 1982 (the Act):

1. Any audit findings, documents, and emails pertaining to the security of
Medtech and ManageMyHealth.

2. Contracts and correspondence with ManageMyHealth concerning their
integration into the health identity portal by Te Whatu Ora, and the
rationale behind selecting them over other available software.

3. Information on any public health organisations utilising Medtech, along
with associated security and auditing details.
This email is to let you know that Health NZ needs more time to make a
decision on your request.

The 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 the time to make our
decision, to 1 July 2024 (allowing for the King's Birthday and Matariki
public holidays).

This extension is required because the consultations necessary to make a
decision on your request are such that a proper response cannot reasonably
be made within the original time limit.

If you have any questions, please contact us
at [1][email address].

If you are not happy with this extension, you have the right to make a
complaint to the Ombudsman. Information about how to do this is available
at [2]www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or by phoning 0800 802 602.
