Moh / ESR Dioxin Study was released however it had key problems; which the people of Paritutu began to highlight; only to fall on deaf ears.
TV3 engauded an forensic accountant to crunch the numbers and do a complete review of the studies reported results. Only to find it had serious flaws which brought the outcomes presented into serious question as these mistakes had the effect of watering down the actual impacts on the people of Paritutu.
KEY PROBLEMS FOUND:
- Participants in the Wrong Group
- Different Data sets merged
- Potential Omissions
- Lack of Certianty ie (only 28 Tests done) instead of 48 to make up the 100 tests
Appendex O: withheld from the peer reviewers overseas and these errors unabled to be picked up. Document "O"
Due to the Study results the Moh launched a Health Study for Cancer with the scope to find if the people of Paritutu had Health problems that would encompass 2000 + participants. who where in the exsposed zone.
However the MoH carried out the study including the entire New Plymouth Territoral Authority which involved 60 - 66000 people this had the effect of watering down the actual exsposure results and cancer in relationship to the people of Paritutu and 245t manuafcturing Plant.
