78760 (2024). Hon Dr Ayesha Verrall to the Minister of Health: Can the Minister confirm that the Q1 2024 childhood immunisation coverage rate was initially reported as 74.9% but was recalculated to 75.7% as of 26 November 2024, if so, can the Minister confirm that the recalculation reflects a 0.8% increase due to Aotearoa Immunisation Register data remediation work, rather than changes in methodology or definitions?

Hon Dr Shane Reti: I refer the Member to my response to Written Parliamentary Question 78755 (2024).
