Reversing the Decline in Health
Wellington has seriously neglected our district's health needs. Despite clear articulation and repeated studies, Ministers and bureaucrats in Wellington are still behind the 8 ball on this. It isn't good enough.
Not only have health services gone backwards over the last years, but opportunities for public/private partnerships for new infrastructure are at serious risk if we do not move soon.
Excellent community work has been done, calling for government attention and support. As Mayor I offer my energy and drive to assist, and where needed - lead, the lobbying effort to pressure Wellington to achieve practical on-the-ground results now to build health sector capacity in Wanaka and Queenstown.
