From Morning Report, 7:10 am on 27 May 2021

Health Minister Andrew Little says all 19 DHBs have given him an assurance that they have checked their IT systems against possible cyber attacks.

Waikato DHB's systems have been down for a week following a ransomeware attack, with no sign of when they will get back up and running.

A crisis meeting involving top government officials was held in Wellington late yesterday.

Corin Dann asked Little what came out of the meeting.
