Kia ora Anthina,  

 

Thank you for your request to the Ministry of Health (the Ministry) on 1
June 2022 for:  

 

“all documentation, all communications and all reports between 

1) the Government and WHO” 

 

As your request currently stands, the information that you have requested
would require a substantial amount of time to collate. It would also
involve a manual search across a number of teams within the Ministry ​of
Health and other government agencies. As such, it may be refused under
section 18(f) of the Act. In order to refine your request, can you please
specify which topic/s of communication you are interested in accessing
between the Government New Zealand Ministry of Health and the World Health
Organisation, as New Zealand engages with the WHO on the full spectrum of
health topics that fall under the Organization's purview.  

 

As you may be aware the Ministry requires a decision to be made as soon as
practicable. Therefore, please advise the Ministry by 5pm 10 June 2022 for
the Ministry to consider the scope of your request.  

 

We look forward to receiving your response.  

Ngā mihi

Due to the COVID-19 global pandemic response, the Ministry is experiencing
