Cancer hotspots

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

Health Research Council of New Zealand did not have the information requested.

From: Jason McIntosh

Dear Health Research Council of New Zealand,

Is it true that there are many Cancer Hotspots around New Zealand?
Are records kept as to the numbers of cancer cases of people living near certain industies ? Under high voltage power lines and transformers ? Near to fracking or oil well sites ?
Is this information withheld or suppressed to protect industry and or property values ?

Yours faithfully,

Jason McIntosh

Dear Health Research Council of New Zealand,

 

Is it true that there are many Cancer Hotspots around New Zealand?

Are records kept as to the numbers of cancer cases of people living near
certain industies ? Under high voltage power lines and transformers ? Near
to fracking or oil well sites ?

Is this information withheld or suppressed to protect industry and or
property values ?

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Jason McIntosh
