79530 (2024). Hon Phil Twyford to the Minister of Health: How many, if any, surgeries were postponed at Starship Hospital in November 2024, listed by area/ward?

Hon Dr Shane Reti: I am advised that Health New Zealand is not currently able to provide this information broken down by area/ward without substantial manual collation and directing staff from their core duties. I consider that the time required to answer the Member’s question is not in the public interest.
