Speaker: The crisis is all around us,…, in reply to andin,
it was the fashion at the time
Still the case.

Speaker: The crisis is all around us,…, in reply to WH,
There's something that's happened I can't tell you about.
To do with RNZ? I look forward to hearing that when the time is right.

Investing in community-based primary care and stronger IT to genuinely join up all parts of the health system greatly reduces the need for any more hospitals. Central govt and DHBs know this already. Let's see what actually gets done.

Hard News: The Unitec project: Something…, in reply to Neil,
I know the problem building issue was raised with both Twyford and Kaye.
...
Twyford paid little attentionAgain, please provide evidence to back up this assertion. It's not one I've seen anywhere else. How should we believe it to be true?

Hard News: The Unitec project: Something…, in reply to Neil,
So you have no evidence to back your statement about Twyford other than feeling it in your waters?

Hard News: The Unitec project: Something…, in reply to Neil,
The Middlemore Hospital maintanence person who tried to alert the DHB to problems early on mentions being overruled by “experts”.
He is referring to *himself* as an expert, over-ruled by non-experts. Read again.

Twyford didn’t listen to those who knew
Any links about that?

Hard News: The Unitec project: Something…, in reply to Matthew Hooton,
they would likely have been built over the same decade that the new government is talking about
Just like all the homes in National's SHAs were 'likely' to be built - until those canny developers figured they could make more by landbanking and flicking it on unbuilt. Who could possibly have foreseen another market failure!

If you want to help, it's best to know what you're talking about.
And it helps if media do not regurgitate nonsensical talking points without basic journalistic fact-checking.
Ms Bright repeatedly justifies her refusal to pay rates by claiming that AT and the Council are 'breaking the law' by not releasing line-item accounts for all contracts as she demands. She insists that the Public Records Act backs her in this - though it clearly only requires organisations to hold that information, as any records manager or person who can read English can attest. Making any of that information public is governed by other laws, most commonly the Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act (LGOIMA). Even RNZ Checkpoint fell for her gambit recently.
Such stupidity makes it harder for everybody who is genuinely trying to help local bodies work better with citizens.
