16086 (2025). Debbie Ngarewa-Packer to the Minister of Health: What actions, if any, will the Minister take to increase radiology services workforce in Taranaki?

Hon Simeon Brown: Our Government is focused on strengthening the frontline to ensure that all New Zealanders have access to timely, quality healthcare, and I am advised that Health New Zealand is actively recruiting to fill vacant positions for radiographers, radiologists, and sonographers. I refer the Member to Kiwi Health Jobs, which lists a number of roles that Health New Zealand is actively recruiting for: https://www.kiwihealthjobs.com/jobtools/jncustomsearch.searchResults?in_organid=19737&in_jobDate=All
