Thank you for your request of 14 November 2023, via Data.govt, asking for the following information under the Official Information Act 1982 (the Act):
Would it be possible to have access to these data: Data relating to occupational illness in NZ - by industry sectors
Our response
On 20 November 2023, we asked you to clarify your request by COB 22 November 2023. As we did not hear back from you, we proceeded to make a decision on your request.
We are refusing to provide the data requested as the request is broad and would require substantial collation and research to extract. This decision has been made under section 18(f) of the Act. In making this decision, we have considered extending the timeframe, or charging, as allowed under the Act. However, neither of these options have been offered as we have determined that providing this information would unreasonably interfere with the everyday functions of the teams involved.
You are welcome to resubmit your request. As noted in our email of 22 November, will need you to clarify the specific details of your request and the period you are seeking the data for.
If you are not happy with this response
you can contact the Ombudsman via info@ombudsman.parliament.nz or by phoning 0800 802 602. Information about how to make a complaint is available at www.ombudsman.parliament.nz.
