Dear Health New Zealand,

I would like to get a copy of the most recent Adult Mental Health services policy 1)in relation to the qualifying & access to treatment and care for persons living in the South Auckland community, 2) the treatment and care of outpaitents within the Counties Manukau region 3) and the discharge of outpaitents within the Rapua Te Ao Waiora clinic.

I'd also like to get a copy of the most recent policy that Te Whatu Ora New Zealand has, a policy and/or standards in place around the communication and correspondence of information which include appointments, referrals and assessments of Adult Mental Heath Services between Te Whatu Ora New Zealand and Outpaitents, receiving treatment and care from the South Auckland region, Counties Manukau Health, as well as Rapua Te Ao Waiora Clinic. This includes referrals, appointments and assessments made in Middlemore Hospital, and referrals, appointments and assessments made in the community.

I'm only interested in policy, standards and internal processes which would be information avaliable to the general public.I'm not requesting for any details of outpaitents or staff members names.

Yours faithfully,
