Dear OIA,
Thanks so much for the information you have provided in your response as we do appreciate the time it takes to do so.
We will collate the responses from all of the DHBs - particularly around the services that are provided as we hope to map these across rural NZ to tell a positive story about what is actually available in rural communities.
Yours sincerely,
Marie Daly
