Thank you for your email dated 27 June 2018 requesting the following information under section 12 of the Official Information Act 1(1982): Sources tell us that that wait times at Victoria University's Student Health aren't meeting the DHB standards. Would you be able to confirm this for us? What are the standards for wait times for doctors' and nurses' appointments?
As requested, this was clarified by you on 28 June 2018 as follows:
My apologies. I am referring to doctor and nurses appointments in the university context. Is the wait time at Victoria University in line with the recommended wait time for students to see nurses and general practitioners.
Your request for information has been denied under section 18(g). CCDHB does not collect the information required because it does not directly employ general practitioners or practice nurses.
You have the right, under section 28 of the Act, to seek a review or to ask the Ombudsman to review the information that has been provided to you.
Yours sincerely
