Hon ANDREW LITTLE (Minister of Health): In response to the first part of the member's question, the health system is there to deliver health services whenever people need them. As that member well knows, it is not uncommon to have spikes in particular infections, especially during winter, and that's what is happening now. In response to the second part of the member's question, I have assured myself that the district health boards are safe because this Government funds them properly, in contrast to that member's party in Government.
