Why did the Ministry of Health (MoH) not support progressively building our testing capacity, including through partnering with iwi and Whānau Ora, who, instead, have had to establish saliva testing capacities and capabilities at their own cost? How many iwi are subsidising the poor performing MoH by providing their own testing crew, which this MP has been part of? There are some, and these are questions that demand to be answered, indeed, in an independent inquiry. What has been clear, time and time again, ever since our first COVID case two years ago, is that we as tangata w'enua, cannot, and must not, rely on Government and the State to protect our w'akapapa and keep our people and our communities safe and well in home isolation. Manaaki packs, testing—where would this nation be without Māori hauora, Whānau Ora, and iwi providers?
