I refer to your information request dated 10 May 2022 and made under the Official Information Act 1982.
In order to assist our staff who are assessing your request, would it be possible to please clarify for the second part of your request (items 3 and 4) - are you after information for Single Programme Preference applicants for the HSFY General category, or are you after information for Single Programme Preference applicants for the HSFY Rural Equity Group?
In addition, could you please clarify what you mean by "successful" - are you interested in the information for applicants who were successful in receiving an offer to the BPhty programme, or are you interested in the information for applicants who were successful in entering the BPhty programme (i.e. they accepted their offers)?
We will wait to hear back from you before we continue to process your request.

I refer to your Official Information Act request dated 10 May 2022. You
have requested information regarding entry to the Bachelor of
Physiotherapy (BPhty) programme via the Health Sciences First Year (HSFY)
Rural Origins Equity Group and HSFY Single Programme Preference category

We note we contacted you 17 May 2022 to see whether you would be willing
to clarify the scope of your request. We asked whether you were interested
in the information for applicants who were successful in receiving an
offer to the BPhty programme, or whether you were interested in the
information for applicants who were successful in entering the BPhty
programme (i.e. they accepted their offers). We note that we have not
heard back from you. Accordingly, we have defined “successful” as
receiving an offer to enter the PBhty programme.
Please see our responses to each of your questions below.
