37246 (2024). Hon Dr Ayesha Verrall to the Minister of Health: What impact will there be in access to screening in more places in the community, if any, due to the reduction in funding for National Cervical Screening Programme in Budget 2024?

Hon Dr Shane Reti: I am advised that Health NZ is in the process of finalising its internal budget following Budget 2024. Whether or not there is a continuation of this internally managed programme is an operational decision.
