Response to your request for official information
Thank you for your request under the Official Information Act 1982 (the Act) on 6 August 2021
for:
" ... copies of all COVID-19 Immunisation Implementation Advisory Group meeting minutes,
dated March to July 2021"
The Ministry has identified eight documents within scope of your request. All documents are
itemised in Appendix 1, and the grounds under which I have decided to withhold information are
outlined. Where information is withheld, this is noted in the document itself. Please note, there
is also a sub-group to the Immunisation Implementation Advisory Group, called Tatou
Whaikaha, which provides perspectives of people with disabilities. We also hold the minutes of
meetings of Tatou Whaikaha. If you would like to request a copy of the Tatou Whaikaha
minutes, please let us know.
Under section 28(3) of the Act, you have the right to ask the Ombudsman to review any
decisions made under this request. The Ombudsman may be contacted by email at:
