Reti ShaneDr SHANE RETI (National): Thank you Mr Speaker. I want to talk about two reports the Government doesn't want New Zealanders to see and won't release and one report that they requested be delayed. The very first report that this Government is still hiding and does not want to release is the 2020/2021 health promotion unit That's Us" campaign. This was a social media vaccination campaign for $1.5 million. It was signed off at the end of 2021 but actually only started after 87 percent of the target audience had already had their first vaccine. The lead person co-signed multimillion-dollar contracts awarded to an advertising agency that their own private company also had contracts with. Staff were so concerned that they wrote an open letter and left copies of it lying around the office having already spoken with their management team gone through appropriate process and heard nothing. The person's nephew and his partner were reported as both being university students at the time and were paid thousands of dollars a week to work on the campaign while they were still living with the lead person. The small and late content that was produced also had issues so the content wasn't that great anyway for $1.5 million. A clip published in March riffs off what seems to be a young man about to skull a bottle of beer down a hosepipe. In another a kid mistakes "getting vaxxed" with "Big Macs". It's against Te Hiringa Hauora's policies—that's the health promotion unit who organised all of this—to promote alcohol or fast food anyway. This was a delegated responsibility to Minister Ayesha Verrall. She had the delegation for health promotion. Te Hiringa Hauora was the organisation. This was on her watch; $1.59 million. Now more than a year later she is still refusing to release the independent review that she asked for in March 2022. Why would we expect her to release any other information when a year later she is still refusing to release that information—that independent review?Here's how the Minister and her officials responded to questions around the programme—this is how it's reported by journalists who are persuing it. One: Health New Zealand has refused to release any signed conflict of interest forms or the date they were signed. Two: it is reported that Health New Zealand declined to be interviewed did not answer written questions and appeared to hide behind the health reforms as reasons for why the campaign failed. I call on the Minister to release the independent review from a year ago now on the "That's Us" vaccination campaign—the failed "That's Us" vaccination campaign. That's the first report that they are hiding. The second report that the Minister is hiding is the independent report into the Māori Health Authority that she received on 5 May—two months ago. There'll be two possibilities: one maybe there are improved outcomes for Māori and if so spread the good news and celebrate it; or two the Māori Health Authority has failed to achieve outcomes and breached the Crown Entities Act by failing to provide full financial statements with their statements of performance expectations for December last year. Three: they've failed to have income and expense budget planning for the first four months of its existence; it's a half a billion dollar entity and this was referred to the Office of the Auditor-General. And four: they've seen an unbelievable bloating in staff numbers that is staggering. The briefing to the incoming Minister in February this year revealed a staggering 227 fulltimeequivalents (FTE). Six months later in fact a few weeks ago the chief executive told the Health Committee that the number at full establishment for FTEs for the Māori Health Authority will be 321. Not surprising about a week later in fact in our post-hearing questions that's gone back to correction and we're kind of hoping that it might be a bit less. Actually it's 50 percent more and the correction is that the full-time equivalent number for the Māori Health Authority will not be 321 but actually 400. That's almost three times the number of FTEs than at Pharmac for half the budget. The Minister needs to release that independent report into the Māori Health Authority. As for the report that she's delayed well that's just a circus of errors. This was to the faulty data that was put up on the website. They were warned by the Health Quality and Safety Commission that there were a number of concerns around the data. This advice was not followed. They gave the first report—remember they said they could do it monthly; clearly they can't. They gave the first report to the Canterbury team who were reluctant "reluctant to undertake the work anyway because they didn't have subject matter expertise." Come the second report they say "No let's not give it to Canterbury let's try and manage it in-house." Regional director roles weren't present. The data was not checked by a second analyst. Districts were not asked to validate the data. What a mess—66 pages of indictment of failed planning failed data and failed accountability by this Government. Release the reports Minister."
