Dear Shay
Re Official Information Request - Incidents in the transport of patients
I am writing to acknowledge your official information request dated 10 March 2020.
We will endeavour to respond to your request as soon as possible and, in any event, no later than 7 April 2020. We will contact you if an extension is required.
Please note that, like other DHBs across New Zealand, Auckland DHB has adopted a model of proactive disclosure which sees OIA responses publically available on our website approximately one month after they have been released. If you believe that there are any special reasons why proactive disclosure should not apply to our response to you, we will be happy to consider this.
