Digital Contact Tracing Funding

Andrew Chen made this Official Information request to Ministry of Health

This request has been reported as needing administrator attention (perhaps because it is vexatious, or a request for personal information)

From: Andrew Chen

Dear Ministry of Health,
Under the OIA, I'd like to request information about the total amount of funding allocated to digital contact tracing (and specifically the NZ COVID Tracer app), with separate line items for development costs and advertising/marketing costs, as well as details about how the funding/budgets for digital contact tracing changed throughout 2020 as the government responded to COVID-19. Please let me know if I can clarify this request any further.

Yours faithfully,
Andrew Chen

From: Andrew Chen

Dear Ministry of Health,
Thank you for your response and request for clarification. I'll define "digital contact tracing" as any use of digital technology to assist with contact tracing processes. I think within the MOH this can be divided in two ways - digital technology used to assist human contact tracers in their jobs (e.g. databases and CRM systems), and digital technology used to help individuals support contact tracing and receive exposure notifications (e.g. NZ COVID Tracer). I am primarily interested in the latter, and would like to request information about budgeting for NZ COVID Tracer and any other work associated with that app, broken down by function (e.g. technical development, marketing and advertising, technical support, policy development), and how that allocation of funding changed over the last year.

Yours faithfully,
Andrew Chen
