Thank you for your request for official information, received on 17 June
2022, requesting:

“1) The total number of pharmacies licensed in New Zealand.
2) The names and addresses of the pharmacies
3) The directors, shareholders, and/or owners of the pharmacies”

The Ministry of Health has decided to extend the period of time available
to respond to your request under section 15A of the Official Information

You have the right, under section 28 of the Act, to ask the Ombudsman to
review my decision to extend the time available to respond to your
request.
