Dear Stephen,

Thanks very much!

Yours faithfully,

Allyson van de Pol

Dear Allyson,
Thank you for your application dated 13.2.2022 requesting a copy of the
contracts between the Government and the COVID-19 vaccine suppliers.

After careful consideration of your application, we regret to inform you
that we are unable to provide the information requested for the reason set
out in paragraph 2.16 of the Code on Access to Information which states
that information including commercial, financial, scientific or technical
confidences, trade secrets or intellectual property the disclosure of
which would harm the competitive or financial position of any person may
be refused.  In this case, we consider that the public interest in
disclosure of the requested information does not outweigh any harm to the
competitive or financial position of the vaccine suppliers concerned.

You may ask the Department to review the decision by writing to Deputy
Director of Health at 21^st Floor, Wu Chung House, 213 Queen’s Road East,
Hong Kong if you are not satisfied with the above decision.
 Alternatively, you may complain to The Ombudsman, whose address is -

        Office of The Ombudsman, Hong Kong
        30/F, China Merchants Tower,
        Shun Tak Centre, 168-200 Connaught Road Central, Hong Kong
        Complaint Hotline:2629 0555
        Fax:2882 8149
