Now the Health Minister is delaying data also
The Herald reports:
Health Minister Ayesha Verrall corrected an answer to Parliament this evening, admitting her office had stopped health data from being released because of the timing of other Government announcements.
Earlier in the day, Verrall had denied this was the case under questioning from National’s Shane Reti.
They don’t learn, do they!
The information they delayed releasing is the fact that only 72% of ED patients get seen within six hours. We have gone from 7% having to wait over six hours to 28% – four times as many. In absolute terms, this means we’ve gone from 20,000 patients waiting over six hours to 80,000.
