Thank you for your request dated 30 June 2023 under the Official
Information Act 1982 (the Act) to Manatû Hauora (the Ministry of Health),
that was transferred to Te Whatu Ora on 13 and 27 July 2023 for the
following information:
 
    “1) Manufacturer's Certificate of Analysis for all batches of vaccine
distributed         in New Zealand.
     2) Number of doses received from the manufacturer for each batch
(i.e.                 number of doses received per manufacturer provided
batch identifier).
     3) Number of doses administered in New Zealand for each batch (i.e.
number       of doses administered per manufacturer provided batch
identifier).
     4) The allocation of records for each batch to each DHB in New
Zealand and         each vaccination centre within that DHB in New Zealand
(i.e. an updated               version of records provided as Appendix 1
for OIA request H202200175).”
 

This email is to let you know that Te Whatu Ora needs more time to make a
decision on your request.

The Act requires that we advise you of our decision on your request no
later than 20 working days after the day we received your request.
Unfortunately, it will not be possible to meet that time limit and we are
therefore writing to notify you of an extension of the time to make our
decision, to 1 September 2023.

This extension is required because the consultations necessary to make a
decision on your request are such that a proper response cannot reasonably
be made within the original time limit.

If you have any questions, please contact us at [1][email address]

If you are not happy with this extension, you have the right to make a
complaint to the Ombudsman. Information about how to do this is available
at www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or by phoning 0800 802 602.

Under section 28(3) of the Act you have the right to ask the Ombudsman to
