30366 (2025). Camilla Belich to the Minister of Health: How, if at all, has the number of individual workstations changed over the past 12 months for each of the Minister’s responsible agencies, if any?

Hon Simeon Brown: As part of our focus on putting patients first and ensuring all New Zealanders have access to timely, quality healthcare, we have prioritised finding efficiencies within our health agencies to ensure a tight focus on the delivery of frontline care. I am advised that over the past 12 months, the Ministry has reduced its individual workstations by 192, while Health New Zealand has increased its workstations by 150.
