52459 (2024). Hon Dr Ayesha Verrall to the Minister of Health

52459 (2024). Hon Dr Ayesha Verrall to the Minister of Health: How much, if anything, has Health New Zealand saved to date from their staff restructuring process since the savings directive was issued from the Government?

Hon Dr Shane Reti: The government has not issued a savings directive to Health New Zealand. We do, however, expect Health NZ, like all government entities, to operate within its budget. I also refer the Member to Written Parliamentary Question 52457 (2024).
