Kia ora David 

 

Thank you for your request for official information, received on 14 July
2025 for: 

 …. all communications to or from any Press Secretary for the Minister of
Health (including emails and texts) with any Health NZ staff member in the
week beginning 7 July 2025.
 

Please note that there is a substantial volume of communications exchanged
between press secretaries and  Health NZ on a daily and weekly basis
across a broad range of subjects.In order to provide information relevant
to your request for “all communications to or from any Press Secretary….”,
Health NZ would cuurrently need to divert personnel from their core duties
and allocate extra time to complete these tasks. The diversion of these
resources would impair Health NZ’s ability to carry out our other core
functions. 

 

To avoid refusing this part of your request under section 18(f) of the OIA
due to the substantial collation efforts needed, are you able to refine
down the scope of this part of the request? To provide information best
suited to your purposes you may wish to consider narrowing the scope of
your request to ask for information related to a specific topic or subject
matter.

 

I would be grateful if you could confirm if you are willing to refine the
request by the end of the day Tuesday 22 July . If we don’t hear from you,
we will proceed with the request as it is currently framed. 

 

Ngā mihi
