Correspondence of why MOH staff are not back in the office

Daisy Williams made this Official Information request to Ministry of Health

The request was successful.

From: Daisy Williams

Dear Ministry of Health,

I request under the OIA information in regards to why Ministry of Health staff are not allowed back into the office.

Your DG, Dr Ashley Bloomfield (bless his heart) has been present (I am assuming) in making decisions for the levels of the country. As of Monday last week (as you know) the levels were changed. However the Ministry of Health have not let staff back into your main offices. Why not? I request all correspondence between MOH and Ministers from Tuesday 31 August 2021- Monday 13 September 2021 regarding discussions and decisions made around staff not accessing the building.

I do not understand why everyone else is expected to be back in offices (even in lower numbers) and you are not. You should be leading by example.

I expect your response by Monday 11 October 2021, thank you for your time.

Yours faithfully,

Pissed off citizen.
