Dear Ms Huriama
YOUR OFFICIAL INFORMATION ACT (1982) REQUEST HBDHB REF: OIA2019025
I refer to your Official Information Act request dated 19 February 2019 where you requested
information from Hawke’s Bay District Health Board (HBDHB). Your questions and HBDHB’s
response is provided below:
(i) What is the anticipated budget allocation toward the PHO, Health HB Ltd for the period 01
July 2019 to 30 June 2020?
(ii) Will there be intended funding cuts toward the allocation?
i)
The budget for 2019/20 has not been finalised at this present point of time. We expect this
to be available early in the new financial year of 2019/20. Therefore under Section 18 (d)
we are unable to provide this information at this time but expect it will be publically
available in July 2019 as part of Health Hawke’s Bays’ Annual Report. Health Hawke’s Bay
Limited (PHO) and HBDHB have agreed to work together on achieving financial efficiencies
within 2019/20 funding allocation.
I trust this information meets your needs. If you would like any further information or
clarification please phone me. If you are not satisfied with this response you may contact the
Office of the Ombudsmen, phone 0800 802 602.
Yours sincerely
