Dear Amber,
I refer to part 1 of your request of 14 March 2022 to Waikato District
Health Board, transferred to the University of Auckland under section 14
of the OIA. The University's response follows.
“With regards to general medicine and pediatrics departments.
1) what is the list if senior medical officers designated to be clinical
supervisors for medical students from the university if Auckland (i.e. who
are the SMOs who can sign CSRs)”
See the attached Excel document.
I refer to part 2 of your request of 14 March 2022, to Waikato District
Health Board, transferred to the University of Auckland under section 14
of the OIA. We have transferred part 2 of your request back to the Waikato
District Health Board, as the information to which this part of your
request relates, namely the FTE and other employment arrangements of
specified Waikato DHB staff, is not held by the University of Auckland but
is believed to be held by the Waikato District Health Board and is
believed to be more closely connected with the functions of the Waikato
DHB. In these circumstances, we are required by section 14 of the OIA to
transfer your request. You will hear further from the Waikato DHB
concerning that part of your request.
Yours sincerely,
Rebecca Ewert
General Counsel
University of Auckland
