Kia ora. Early this year we held a Disability Workshop seeking information on the challenges whānau hauā (people living with a disability and their whānau) face when accessing health services.
We listened to your kōrero and now have a draft Disability Responsiveness Plan that provides goals and actions for Waikato DHB to implement in order to eliminate the barriers and inequities faced by whānau hauā, in particular Māori, Pasifika and rural whānau hauā.

Poll: Do you think an age check is required for these drinks?
Stores are checking IDs for fancy soft drinks and not everyone is happy about it.
One shopper, who asked not to be named, bought some zero alcohol branded drinks at his local supermarket and was asked to “step around into the thoroughfare so a supervisor could see me and make sure I was over 18. I couldn't believe it."
Do you think an age check is required for these drinks? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
