Photo: Supplied A new Māori Health Authority will be set up to have joint decision-making power with the new entity Health New Zealand which will replace all 20 district health boards (DHB). A consensus on whether a new Māori Health Authority should be able to fund its own services could not be reached by the Health and Disability System Review. The report s author Heather Simpson and two other panel members dissented from the majority of the panel and went against the recommendation of the Māori Expert Advisory Group that the authority should have commissioning powers. Minister of Health Andrew Little s decision that it should has been welcomed by the Waitangi Tribunal Māori health claimant group that has been calling for an independent Māori health authority with commissioning rights.
