Dear David
Re:
EXTENSION LETTER - Official Information Act request – Highest 10 vaccinations performed
ADHB Ref 20211213-1121
I refer to your Official Information Act request received dated 13 December 2021 requesting the following
information:
1. The highest ten individual clinic/locations of COVID-19 vaccinations performed on an individual
day at an individual clinic/locations in the Northern Region. Please provide the date,
location/clinic, and vaccinations performed. The same clinic/location may therefore occur more
than once in the list.
Response
We are unable to provide a response within the normal timeframes due to our response to COVID-19, as
our clinicians, managers and staff are concentrating on measures to manage the current COVID-19 Delta
outbreak in the region.
Given these circumstances you will, therefore, understand that we do not currently have the capacity to
respond with our normal timeliness to OIA requests and, depending on how the outbreak spreads, we may
not have the capacity for some time to come.
Also, please note that the OIA system is on hold nationally between 24 December 2021 and 17 January
2022.
It is therefore necessary to extend the time required to make a decision on your request for information in
accordance with section 15A of the Official Information Act. This is because the information cannot
reasonably be identified, collated or reviewed by the necessary people within 20 working days without
unreasonably interfering with our operations.
We are therefore writing to notify you that we require an extension of the time and will be able to supply
the information you requested by
Friday 4 February 2022.
