Kia ora Daryl,
 
The viral transport media swabs that are used in New Zealand are procured
from a number of different suppliers by the laboratories. The Ministry of
Health is not able to provide these to you directly, however you may wish
to approach the manufacturer/suppliers directly for these swabs. 
 
One such supplier is Fort Richard Laboratories. You can access their
website at [1]https://www.fortrichard.com/.
 
Hope this is useful.
 
Cheers

Please note information about meetings related to the Ministers’
portfolios will be proactively released (this does not include personal or
constituency matters). For each meeting in scope, the summary would list:
date, time (start and finish), brief description, location, who the
meeting was with, and the portfolio. If you attend a meeting with the
Minister on behalf of an organisation, the name of the organisation will
be released. If you are a senior staff member at an organisation, or meet
with the Minister in your personal capacity, your name may also be
released. The location of the meeting will be released, unless it is a
private residence. The proactive release will be consistent with the
provisions in the Official Information Act, including privacy
considerations. Under the Privacy Act 1993 you have the right to ask for a
copy of any personal information we hold about you, and to ask for it to
be corrected if you think it is wrong. If you’d like to ask for a copy of
your information, or to have it corrected, or are concerned about the
release of your information in the meeting disclosure, please contact the
sender. You can read more about the proactive release policy at
