Government delays hospital workers interim payout

From Morning Report, 8:25 am on 5 August 2020

The government has put the kaibosh on hopes hospital workers owed three quarters of $1 billion could get an interim payout early.

Workers will have to wait until into next year or even longer, seven years after health boards realised their payroll systems were breaching the Holidays Act.
