I will update FYI's email address for the DHB as per the response above.

It seems emailing direct to the CEO and complaining to the ombudsman has caused a whole new OIA section and email address to be added to the website: http://www.huttvalleydhb.org.nz/content/...

(I had to check the wayback machine to confirm I wasn't just blind before.)
