36818 (2025). Debbie Ngarewa-Packer to the Minister of Health

36818 (2025). Debbie Ngarewa-Packer to the Minister of Health: Did the Minister consult with Iwi Māori Partnership Boards (IMPB's), iwi, hapū, and Māori hauora providers on the proposed amendments to the Pae Ora (Healthy Futures) Act 2022, listed by who and when?

Hon Simeon Brown: As the Member will be aware, I engaged with the Hauora Māori Advisory Committee on the changes to put patients first and deliver access to timely, quality healthcare for all New Zealanders. As the amendment bill passes through the select committee process there will be an opportunity for members of the public to provide their input.
