27940 (2023). Hon Dr Ayesha Verrall to the Minister of Health: Does the Minister intend to progress action on the Whangārei Hospital rebuild in line with comments from National Health Spokesperson Dr Shane Reti when he said, “I need to make sure that the money the last Government said it had put aside for the hospital is really and truly locked in for it. I also need to see what stage the proposal is at, what work has been done and what needs to be done,” and if not, why not?

Hon Dr Shane Reti: I refer the Member to reply number 26157 (2023)
