Jared made this Official Information request to Auckland District Health Board
The request was partially successful.
From: Jared
Dear Auckland District Health Board,
I am making an OIA. I am requesting:
1. How many RMO (junior doctor) shifts were left uncovered/vacant for each month of last year?
2. How many SMO (senior doctor) shifts were left uncovered/vacant for each month of last year?
3. What steps/processes are taken to fill these vacancies?
4. What procedures are in place during these uncovered/vacant shifts to ensure the safety of both patients and staff?
Yours faithfully,
Jared

Official Information Request – Vacant doctor shifts (Auckland DHB
Reference 20220301-1167)
I am writing to acknowledge your official information request dated 28
February 2022.
We have determined that we will have a response to you no later than 26
April 2022. We will contact you if an extension is required.
Due to the COVID-19 global pandemic response, Auckland DHB continues to
experience higher than normal volumes of requests for information. Many
key Auckland DHB and Auckland Regional Public Health Service staff are
currently committed to tasks associated with the current COVID-19
outbreak. This will invariably impact on our ability to respond to certain
OIA requests within normal timeframes.
If you have any questions about management of OIA during the COVID
pandemic you may find it helpful to read the following from the Office of
the Ombudsman:
o [1]Chief Ombudsman’s statement on official information response times
during the implementation of the COVID-19 Protection Framework
o [2]FAQs about official information requests during COVID-19
Please note that, like other DHBs across New Zealand, Auckland DHB has
adopted a model of proactive disclosure which sees OIA responses
publically available on our website approximately one month after they
have been released. If you believe that there are any special reasons why
proactive disclosure should not apply to our response to you, we will be
happy to consider this.
Ngâ mihi,
Avril
