About this guide
The Research Collaboration Guide will explain how researchers, clinicians and organisations can work with the Registry: what data is available, how to apply for secure access, and what the governance group looks for in an application.
What it will cover

- The national data dictionary and available variables
- Secure access arrangements and data-sharing agreements
- Expectations for Māori data governance and community benefit
- How findings are reviewed before publication
Timing
The guide is expected in 2027, alongside the launch of secure researcher access.
