The government has revealed more details on its major shake up of health services.
Minister Andrew Little has announced plans to create up to 80 local offices - the first nine in Otara, Hauraki, Taupo, Wairoa, Whanganui, Porirua, the West Coast, eastern Bay of Plenty and Horowhenua - that will be the new regional bases for organising health services.
These networks will give advice to the new Health New Zealand and Maori Health Authority.
The Health Minister Andrew Little spoke to Max Towle.
