Thank you for your request under the Official Information Act 1982 (the
Act) to Manatû Hauora (the Ministry of Health) on 23 October 2022 for: 

 

“The provisional suicide statistics are usually released around August
each year, but not this year. 
 Can you please provide provisional suicide statistics for July 2021 -
June 2022.” 

 

The Manatû Hauora Suicide Web Tool includes data on deaths from suspected
intentional self-harm. These are the deaths which are under investigation
by the coroner to determine if the death was self-inflicted. The data for
suspected suicides has now been updated and goes to June 2022. The web
tool is here: [1]https://minhealthnz.shinyapps.io/suicide...
 

Under section 28(3) of the Act, you have the right to ask the Ombudsman to
review any decisions made under this request. The Ombudsman may be
contacted by email at: [2][email address] or by calling 0800
802 602.
