Waitangi Tribunal.
We enclose our report Hauora: Report on Stage One of the Health Services and Outcomes Kaupapa Inquiry.
On 30 November 2016, the chairperson of the Waitangi Tribunal prioritised an inquiry into nationally significant health issues. This signalled the commencement of the Health Services and Outcomes
Kaupapa Inquiry (Wai 2575).
There are numerous health-related claims before the Waitangi Tribunal. After hearing from the claimants and the Crown, we decided to take a phased and thematic approach to this inquiry, hearing claims in three stages, namely:
- priority themes that demonstrate system issues (stage one);
- nationally significant issues and themes that emerged (stage two); and
- remaining themes of national significance, including eligible historical claims (stage three).
