Erika Whittome made this Official Information request to Ministry of Health

The request was successful.

From: Erika Whittome

Dear Ministry of Health,
This fyi.org.nz website contains OIA requests and I see the ministry Of health has its own OIA responses website too https://www.health.govt.nz/about-ministr...

What is the criteria is for publishing OIA responses on the ministry’s website?

What is the criteria for this publishing OIA on the ministry’s website in relation to requests around Covid 19, vaccination and health outcomes as a result of vaccination?

Please supply any minutes, emails, memos etc around the making of this criteria and decisions to publish or not to publish a response to an OIA on https://www.health.govt.nz/about-ministr....

Yours faithfully,

Erika Whittome

Dear OIA Requests,
It is unfortunate that there is no existing documentation or publications relating to the information I request in this OIA. However this does not diminish the importance or the actions of the MoH and the information around their actions spending public money. I will copy and past from the Official Information Act:

The purposes of this Act are, consistently with the principle of the Executive Government’s responsibility to Parliament,—
(a)to increase progressively the availability of official information to the people of New Zealand in order—
(i)to enable their more effective participation in the making and administration of laws and policies; and
(ii)to promote the accountability of Ministers of the Crown and officials,—
and thereby to enhance respect for the law and to promote the good government of New Zealand:
(b) to provide for proper access by each person to official information relating to that person:
(c)to protect official information to the extent consistent with the public interest and the preservation of personal privacy.

Yours sincerely,

Erika Whittome
