Tēnā koe T Barnett

Thank you for your email of 28 May 2023, asking for the following
information under the Official Information Act 1982 (the Act):

Dear hnzOIA,

approximately 80 people that attended the conference and listed their
organisation as Te Whatu Ora - Health New Zealand.

are you confirming that there was no cost to the taxpayer for their
attendance, and that they travelled and attended in their own time at
their own expense.

Yours sincerely,

T Barnett

This email is to let you know that Te Whatu Ora needs more time to make a
decision on your request.

The Act requires that we advise you of our decision on your request no
later than 20 working days after the day we received your request.
Unfortunately, it will not be possible to meet that time limit and we are
therefore writing to notify you of an extension of the time to respond to
your request. 

This extension is needed so we can complete the consultations required for
your request. You can expect a response to your request no later than
Monday 8 May 2023.

If you have any questions, please contact us at [1][email address]

If you are not happy with this extension, you have the right to make a
complaint to the Ombudsman. Information about how to do this is available
at www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or by phoning 0800 802 602.

Kia Ora T Barnett

Thank you for you follow up email of 8 June 2023 below. We sincerely
apologise for the delay in getting a response to you.

In consultation with the relevant staff within Te Whatu Ora, we can
confirm there will be no further changes to our responses of 26 January
2023 and 5 May 2023 provided to you.

To reiterate, Te Whatu Ora - Health New Zealand understands that the
Equity Health Conference in Auckland was not sponsored or organised by Te
Toka Tumai Auckland (Auckland District). Although there were speakers from
Te Whatu Ora - Health New Zealand in attendance, the Equity Health
Conference (EHC) was a privately organised event. Therefore, we have no
records of costs or attendance at this event.

Te Whatu Ora employees who attended may have had the cost of attendance
met from their personal education budgets which form part of their
employment agreements, and some will have been funded through trusts,
while others may have met the cost at their own expense.

If you are not happy with this response, you have the right to make a
complaint to the Ombudsman. Information about how to do this is available
at [1]www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or by phoning 0800 802 602.

Subject: Re: Response to your request for information HNZ00015328
CRM:0342105

Dear hnzOIA,

Firstly, I must express my disappointment that Te Whatu Ora - Health New
Zealand does not possess the necessary information regarding the
expenditure associated with the attendance of approximately 80 individuals
from the organization at the Equity Health Conference. It is disheartening
to learn that an organization of such significance and stature does not
have an established system to track the allocation of funds. This lack of
transparency raises concerns about accountability and oversight,
particularly when senior leadership is involved in conference
presentations.

113 Te Whatu Ora Employees -   with a $2199 + GST ticket
                    $248,487 Ticket costs

Furthermore, I would like to bring to your attention that the response you
received stating that employees may have covered the cost of attendance
through personal education budgets, trusts, or their own expenses does not
align with the information I have gathered. I have personally spoken with
several individuals who attended the conference, and they have confirmed
that they were on paid time during their participation. Additionally,
their accommodation costs were covered, but not through the means
mentioned in the response, such as employment agreements, trusts, or
personal expenses. This discrepancy raises doubts about the accuracy and
completeness of the information provided in the response.

Moreover, it is essential to consider the current health reforms in New
Zealand and the expectations of increased efficiency that accompanied
them. The response you received fails to demonstrate the anticipated
efficiencies, particularly in relation to financial accountability and the
responsible use of public funds. As citizens, we have a right to expect
transparency and effective governance in the allocation and utilization of
public money. The lack of clarity and oversight demonstrated in the
response is concerning and warrants further scrutiny.

In light of the issues raised, I would appreciate a thorough review of the
matter at hand, considering the discrepancies highlighted in this email.
It is crucial that Te Whatu Ora - Health New Zealand takes immediate steps
to ensure accurate record-keeping and transparency regarding expenditure
related to conferences and events. This will not only enhance public trust
but also align with the principles of good governance and accountability.

Furthermore, I would like to draw attention to the legislation in New
Zealand pertaining to the use of public money. It is essential that all
public organizations adhere to these regulations to maintain the integrity
of the system and ensure responsible fiscal management. I strongly urge Te
Whatu Ora - Health New Zealand to review its procedures and practices in
light of these legislative requirements.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. If you require any further
information or clarification, please do not hesitate to contact me. I
trust that you will address these concerns diligently and take appropriate
action to rectify the issues identified.

Yours sincerely,

T Barnett
