Cancer research funding

Luke made this Official Information request to Health Research Council of New Zealand

The request was successful.

From: Luke

Dear Health Research Council of New Zealand,

On 23 April 2024, my OIA request to the Cancer Control Agency was transferred to you.

It asked:
“Can you please provide a funding breakdown for the research into, …, the
following cancers each year for the past five years?
(a) Breast cancer;
(b) Prostate cancer;
(c) Melanoma;
(d) Lung cancer; and
(e) Bowel cancer.”

I note that I have not received a response since.

Please urgently update me on the status of this request and the HRC’s response.

Yours faithfully,

Luke
