Dear Virginia
In answer to your OIA request, I have been asked to respond directly.
In New Zealand Pre-marketing approval must be obtained for new and changed
medicines. New medicines cannot be marketed in New Zealand without the
consent of the Minister of Health. This is the Section 23 approval in the
list below.
Medicines to which changes have been made cannot be marketed without the
consent of the Director-General of Health. Data that satisfactorily
establish the quality, safety and efficacy of the product, for the
purposes for which it is to be used, must be submitted for evaluation
before consent can be granted.  These are the other items in the list.
Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any further queries.
Kind regards
Becci

Provisional New higher-risk medicine Granted
13/11/2020 Consent (Section containing one or more 3/2/2021 25/11/2020 Y

This is Medsafe receiving the application for Comirnaty on 13 November

Is that what you are after for each line?

 Dear Medsafe,

 Did you proof read your reply?  I suggest you rewrite it with some decent
 paragraphing, as currently it's pretty much unreadable. Thank you.

 Yours sincerely,

 Virginia Crawford

Dear Medsafe,

I don't think that's quite right, is it? You don't seem to be referring to the entries I requested. I have to wonder why that is...

The entries I'm referring to are these:

16/8/2021 Changed Medicine Notification Formulation - Grade 1; Change in ownership Evaluation complete 25/8/2021
13/11/2020 Provisional Consent (Section 23) New higher-risk medicine containing one or more new active substances Granted 3/2/2021 25/11/2020 Y

Yours sincerely,

Virginia Crawford
