TIME FOR THE CROWN TO ADDRESS DECADES OF MISTREATMENT, PAIN, SUFFERING & DEATH OF MĀORI BY SLOW REACTING NZ HEALTH SYSTEMFinal submissions in the Health Services and Outcomes Inquiry are to be held before the Waitangi Tribunal in Wellington on 12 and 13 March. The Inquiry started in October 2018 on Tūrangawaewae Marae. Given the alarming evidence placed before the Tribunal of Māori health disparities, the Wai 1315 claimants representing hundreds of thousands of North Island whānau are calling for significant changes to the NZ Health system for the Treaty of Waitangi to be consistent and lives saved. The Crown’s evidence accepts that the state of Māori health is both inequitable and unacceptable. It also accepts that Māori health statistics are deplorable. The group are calling for many competitive barriers to be reversed to allow Māori to actively participate in and contribute to Crown strategies for Māori health. Be appointed to decision making bodies and fairly consulted with regarding resourcing needs. Inadequate funding based on assumptions is a significant issue........ www.nzdoctor.co.nz/article/undoctored/time-crown-address-decades-mistreatment-pain-suffering-death-maori-slow-reacting
