Hello, We would like DAILY versions of the below files, which are currently in WEEKLY format. https://www.health.govt.nz/system/files/documents/pages/covid_vaccinations_19_10_2021.xlsx https://www.health.govt.nz/system/files/documents/pages/211017_-_cvip_equity_-_rate_ratios_and_uptake_over_time.xlsx
We are modelling vaccination rates and daily data would be much better in seeing expected fluctuations on weekend etc.
Better accuracy for our vaccination modelling.
Data does not exist
Kia ora Thank you for your request on 26 October 2021 for: DAILY versions of the below files, which are currently in WEEKLY format. https://www.health.govt.nz/system/files/documents/pages/covid_vaccinations_19_10_2021.xlsx https://www.health.govt.nz/system/files/documents/pages/211017_-_cvip_equity_-_rate_ratios_and_uptake_over_time.xlsx While the OIA allows New Zealanders to ask for information from Ministers and government agencies, there is no requirement for agencies to create new information and compile information they do not hold. Your question would require the Ministry to create new information. Your request is therefore refused under section 18(g) of the OIA on the grounds that the information sought is not held by the Ministry. Under section 28(3) of the OIA, you have the right to ask the Ombudsman to review any decisions made under this request. The Ombudsman may be contacted by email at: info@ombudsman.parliament.nz or by calling 0800 802 602 Ngā mihi OIA Services Team
