Hon ANDREW LITTLE: Māori and Pacific peoples are twice as likely to die young from conditions that could have been treated, and being Māori or Pacific even determines what sort of treatment you get—at least, it does at the moment. Our plan for dealing with this includes looking at why that is happening and finding effective ways to deal with it. Included among the successful applications are projects led by Māori and Pacific researchers and driven by kaupapa Māori and Pacific research methodologies that will help to reduce inequities in health for Māori and Pacific peoples.
