19861 (2024). Hon Dr Ayesha Verrall to the Minister of Health: What progress, if any, has been made in the quarter October to December 2023 in actioning the recommendation ‘Prioritise on-time vaccination and reposition outreach services to proactively support achieving this for priority populations’ under ‘Priority Area 5: Proactive outreach immunisation services’ within the ‘Initial Priorities for the National Immunisation Programme in Aotearoa 2022’?

Hon Dr Shane Reti: I am advised that between October and December 2023, a review of outreach immunisation services was conducted. This mapped both the catch-up and the proactive outreach services, and will be used to inform a future service model design with investment that ensures effective engagement and service options for priority populations.
