Tçnâ koe Jai
 
I refer to your official information request dated 13/12/22 for the number
of cases for the Flu in NZ between 2016 - 2022.
 
Te Whatu Ora has transferred part of your request to the Ministry of
Justice. This section of your request "the number of deaths of the same"
is believed to be more closely connected with the functions of the
Ministry of Justice - Coroners office.
 
In these circumstances, we are required by section 14 of the Official
Information Act to transfer your request.
 
You will hear further from the ministry of health concerning that part of
your request. 
 
Nâ mâtou noa, nâ
