27076 (2026). Hon Dr Ayesha Verrall to the Minister of Health: How many clinical staff were recruited from overseas by each Health New Zealand district in each calendar month since 1 July 2022, broken down by district and by role category (nurses, doctors, allied health, or other)?

Hon Simeon Brown: I am advised that due to the small numbers, this data could not be broken down by calendar month and role category to protect privacy of Health New Zealand employees.
