I also want to acknowledge the independent committee that has prepared this report, in particular Dr Jonathan Christiansen, the chief medical officer from Waitematā District Health Board, and Dr Penny Andrew—both individuals that I have worked with closely when I was at that district health board, both individuals who I hold in very high regard and are respected within their sector. I also want to acknowledge Selah Hart, who has contributed as part of that committee as well—her contribution in terms of Māori health and progress within that sector is to be acknowledged—and Norma Lane, who previously was a member of the executive with St John Ambulance.
