Tēnā koe Roger
Thank you for your Official Information Act (OIA) request of 21 April 2025
to the Ministry of Health – Manatū Hauora regarding retention of doctors
in New Zealand’s public health system.
Please be advised that your email does not meet the requirements of a
request for official information under the OIA. Although it is permissible
to seek information by asking questions under the OIA, a distinction must
be drawn between questions which seek information that is ‘held’, and
questions which seek to elicit an opinion or explanation. The primary
purpose of the OIA is to allow requesters to seek information ‘held’ by
agencies. It is not a mechanism for requesters to seek an explanation or
opinion from an agency. In preference to refusing your request under the
provisions of the OIA, your email is being treated as correspondence.
Further, your email relates to the responsibilities of Health New Zealand
– Te Whatu Ora and as such your email has been transferred to Health New
Zealand to respond to you directly. Please be advised that you will
receive a formal response from Health New Zealand in due course.
Nāku noa, nā
