Health leader weighs in on Te Whatu Ora chair's sacking

From Morning Report, 6:42 am on 1 March 2023

Some health leaders see the sacking of Rob Campbell as chair of Te Whatu Ora as a way to steer the health agency in a better direction.

Campbell took to LinkedIn at the weekend to criticise National's Three Waters policy as a thin disguise for dog-whistling on co-governance.

He maintains those comments were made in a private capacity, but the Health Minister decided otherwise.

Former member of the Hutt Valley DHB Dr Richard Stein spoke to Kim Hill.
