Ministry funding of private company health Apps / Etherapy.

Mr M P Ross made this Official Information request to Ministry of Health

The request was partially successful.

From: Mr M P Ross

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? (under Covid-19 Health package).

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: https://www.beehive.govt.nz/release/apps...)

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
