Transfer of your request for official information
Thank you for your request under the Official Information Act 1982 (the Act) received by the
Ministry of Health – Manatū Hauora (the Ministry) from the Ministry of Social Development on 24
February 2025 for information regarding funding provided to “Te Kaha o Te Rangatahi”. You
requested:
“Please specify if the funding was provided to Te Kaha O Te Rangatahi Incorporated or
the Te Kaha O'Te Rangatahi Whanau O Tamaki Makaurau Trust.”
I have been advised that this information is more closely connected to the functions of Health
New Zealand – Te Whatu Ora. For this reason, I have decided to transfer your request to Health
New Zealand under section 14(b)(ii) of the Act. You can expect a response from Health New
Zealand in due course
([email address]).
If you wish to discuss any aspect of your request with us, including this decision, please feel
free to contact the OIA Services Team on: [email address].
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:
