3035 (2024). Hon Dr Ayesha Verrall to the Minister of Health: Which data sources, if any, are used to calculate the statistic ‘Percentage of children who have all their age-appropriate schedule vaccinations by the time they are 2 years old’ as published on page 25 of the last quarterly performance report from Te Whatu Ora, by title and publication date?

Hon Dr Shane Reti: I am advised the National Immunisation Register (NIR) and the Aotearoa Immunisation Register (AIR) database are the sources used for the 'percentage of children who have all their age-appropriate scheduled vaccinations by the time they are 2 years old', for the quarter end 31 December 2023.
