Dear Ministry of Health,

Under the Official Information Act I ask the release of the information
below.

What is the total individual funding awarded to the following
companies/Apps announced today by the Minister of Health the Hon Dr David
Parker?

1) The Mentemia app developed by All Blacks legend Sir John Kirwan

2)  A health journal app called Melon

3)  An e-therapy programme called Staying on Track.

(Background information:

If you refuse the information due to commercial sensitivity, I will
request the Ombudsman to review this decision, as I believe it is in the
public interest, and not at all sensitive.

Yours faithfully,

Mr M P Ross
