9901 (2024). Hon Dr Ayesha Verrall to the Minister of Health: What progress, if any, has been made in the last quarter (October - December 2023) to develop ‘Compliance with minimum data requirements for all new contracts and procurement’ under ‘Horizon Two’ of the Data and Information Strategy for Health and Disability: Roadmap 2021-2024?
Hon Dr Shane Reti: I am advised during the October - December 2023 quarter, planning was underway to incorporate HISO-endorsed standards in procurement contract templates and system requirements.
