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

I note that I have not received a response since.
