Kia ora Mr Bruning
Thank you for your request for official information, received on 9 August 2022 for:
“…all advice, reports and memos including risk updates from PWC-based officials/contractors to the MInistry of Health from November 2019 to April 1 2022.
This includes, but is not limited to, information and advice in the form of reports, memos and appendices from the PwC New Zealand Hauora team and David Nalder.
This includes but is not limited to:
- The CVIP Programme Status and Risk Summary.
- Future Assurance
- Risk, opportunity, uncertainty, behauvioural updates, reports and data.
(2) Please provide details of costs paid to PWC for COVID-19 related services from November 2019 to the August 8, 2022.”
We are contacting you in accordance with section 18B of the Official Information Act 1982 (the Act) as your request, as it is currently worded, is for a very large volume of information. The team at the Ministry have advised there are hundreds of documents that relate to your request, which require individual assessment of each document to discern its contents. This would place an unreasonable degree of strain on the team responsible and would interfere with the day-to-day workings of the Ministry. Your request therefore may be refused under section 18(f) of the Act as the information requested cannot be made available without substantial collation or research.
If it is possible for you to narrow the scope of your request, could you please specify a topic of interest so that we may be able to provide you with information.
Please respond by 22 August 2022 so that we can consider your refinement in our response to your request.
Please note, under section 15 of the Official Information Act 1982, any clarification or amendments made to a request within seven days after the date it is received, that request may be treated as a new request and the time limit for the response restarts.
We look forward to receiving your response.
