From: Jason McIntosh
Dear Ministry of Health,
I recently asked your department a couple of questions regarding the lack of cancer screening programs being run in New Zealand .
You have failed to respond .
Is this just an oversight or is your silence telling one something different ?
Yours faithfully,
Jason McIntosh
Ministry of Health

It would probaly help, re-wording the question to MoH in a way that they can respond. Such as:
Under the OIA Act 1982 I am requesting all or any information into the decision made, to not make available mens health screening in NZ i.e Prostate and Colon Cancer Screening
