44803 (2025). Hon Dr Ayesha Verrall to the Minister of Health: How many “shifts below target” have occurred, if any, in maternity wards in 2024, as reported in the Care Capacity Demand Management programme, listed by district and as a proportion of all shifts?

Hon Simeon Brown: I refer the member to the attached table, which shows both the number and percentage of shifts that were shifts below target across all maternity wards during 2024. For comparison I have included data for 2022 and 2023. Additionally, I have provided data on shifts above target to give the Member a more complete picture.
