Objectives of Behavioural Science

P Shaw made this Official Information request to Ministry of Health

The request was successful.

From: P Shaw

Dear Ministry of Health,

I would like to request a list of all of the objectives of all of the tasks given to the Ministry’s Evaluation and Behavioural Science team since its formation in mid-2021.

I realize you are planning to release some documentation, including results, toward the end of 2022, however I ask that you treat my request with urgency. I am aware that under s(12)(3) of the Act I am required to give justification for the added urgency of this request. To justify that urgency please consider the following: I am currently writing a report on this topic with a looming deadline and I anticipate that the results from this request will direct the course of my investigations toward further requests to other agencies, the accumulation of which would add significant time delays to the completion of my report.

I trust that the information I have requested is very straight forward, simple to collect, and not in such a great quantity as to require rejection under any other provisions of the Act.

I look forward to your response.

Yours faithfully,

P Shaw

Thank you for your Official Information Act request. This is
an automatic reply to let you know we received it.

In accordance with the Act, we'll let you know our decision within no more
than 20 working days. If you'd like to calculate the timeframe, you can

Due to the COVID-19 global pandemic response, the Ministry is experiencing
significantly higher volumes of queries and requests for information. This
means we may take some time in responding to your request. The Ministry
regularly updates information about the COVID-19 situation and publishes
OIA responses considered to be of public interest:

Please also refer to the Unite Against Covid-19 website for copies of
papers, minutes, and key advice for the decisions the Government has made
relating to COVID-19.

Sometimes we may need to clarify aspects of a request. You can expect to
hear from us soon if that is the case here.

Ngā mihi,

Dear OIA Requests,

I am unable to ascertain from your reply to my request as to whether this request is being considered with urgency as I have requested. Your reply to this request appears to be a standardized response even though I have both stated and justified, as required under s(12)(3) of the Official Information Act 1982, that I would like this request to be treated with urgency.

Please advise as to whether your attention has been drawn to the urgency of this request?

Yours sincerely,

P Shaw
