Hon ANDREW LITTLE (Minister of Health): Thank you, Madam Chair. I thank the member for his question. The member is right: the existing DHBs continue to be responsible for and accountable for the funding that they get and the services that they provide, and we will continue to ensure that accountability through the usual annual planning and expectation setting process, and that is well in train. The DHBs have their budget allocations for the current financial year. Their annual plans are coming back now—they're not all in yet, but many of them are—and so they'll be examined in the weeks to follow and they'll be finalised and signed off.
