Dear Caleb
Thank you for your Official Information Act request, received today.

We are working on a response for you, which will be sent as soon as practical and within the 20 working day timeframe as per the Ombudsman's Guidance, by 30 July 2018. We will contact you if we have any queries with the request or need to extend the timeframe for your response. In those cases, we will advise why the extension is necessary, and indicate when the response will be ready.

Please note that, like all DHBs across New Zealand, Counties Manukau DHB has begun a process of proactive disclosure, which means OIA responses will be publicly available via our website around 10 days after they have been released. Our response will advise if we intend to publish the response, (with personal information removed) and related documents on the CMDHB website. If you advise us of special reasons why proactive disclosure should not apply to your response, we will consider this.

Kind regards
Dinah

Dinah Nicholas
Executive Assistant to Dr Gloria Johnson - acting Chief Executive
Board Secretary

Dear Counties Manukau District Health Board,

What payment has the Pacific Health Development made to any Niuean sports teams, and are there any other sponsorships that are made in the Pacific from DHB funds?

What percentage of funding received by the DHB is spent on treating patients? Please enumerate areas of spending, such as staff expenses - patient contact staff, staff expenses - non-patient contact staff. Another way of expressing it which would be useful would be to express it as a ratio of money spent on treating patients vs total budget spend.

With regard specifically to Ko Awatea, what programmes have been successful? Who accredits the in-house courses? How much does each course cost for participants, and how is value for money assured?

I realise that this is a wide ranging request but would appreciate a comprehensive response.

Yours faithfully,

Caleb Armstrong

Good afternoon Caleb,

thank you for your request for information. We are working on collating our response.

I have been asked to seek clarification from you as to whether you can provide a more specific time period for the activities in your requests. In particular, this will assist us to better answer your questions on the Pacific Health Development services. Please note that our financial reporting year is 1 July-30 June, and we are currently finalising the 17/18 accounts and reports, which are audited and then published - usually in December.

Regarding the Ko Awatea questions, as you note - these questions are very broad in nature. Are you able to more specifically nominate the education programmes you are interested in us detailing. The Ko Awatea team hosts the OnLine learning portal for several DHBs, the Centre hosts training by external providers on site, and Ko Awatea provides programmes for both our Counties community and the wider health sector, as well as delivering in-house training and programmes for CMDHB employees (such as Orientation/welcome days, Improvement Science, annual Resuscitation & Update Days, and the CTEC Simulation suite). Are there particular elements you are focussing on within this?

I look forward to any advice or clarification you can provide to assist us in responding effectively to your requests.
