Dear Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment,

My inquiry is aimed at obtaining detailed data on Family Stream residence applications submitted by individuals diagnosed with a heart-related condition known as cardiomyopathy, specifically during the period from 01 February 2014 to 01 February 2024 (finalised applications only).
Information Sought:
The data requested pertains to applicants with cardiomyopathy and encompasses the following aspects, with a request for the information to be broken down annually within the specified period for finalised applications only:
1. Total number of Family Stream residence applicants processed with cardiomyopathy listed in their application.
2. The count of these applicants categorised as ASH versus Not ASH for this condition.
3. A comparison of the number of these applicants who were granted a medical waiver versus those who were declined a waiver with this condition.
4. The final outcomes of residence applications for individuals, detailing the number approved versus the number declined.
Format of Response:
For clarity and ease of analysis, I request that the information be provided in a tabular format, organised annually within the timeframe of 01 February 2014 to 01 February 2024 (finalised applications only).
I appreciate your attention to this request and look forward to your department's response within the statutory timeframe as stipulated by the Official Information Act 1982, which is no later than 20 working days from the date of receipt of this request.
