I refer to your email dated 19 June 2019 requesting information under the Official Information Act from West Coast DHB regarding priority spending and cancer treatment.
Background Response:
DHBs do not really have priority areas for spending, that would suggest a higher level of discretion and discretionary funding is very limited. Where we do have choices, the three strategic objectives which underpin our strategic direction and influence our funding decisions, along with our decision making framework are:
CEO Expenses 1 July 2018 to 30 June 2019 for West Coast DHB.
The purpose of regular public disclosure of Chief Executive’s (CE) expenses is to provide transparency and accountability for discretionary expenditure by CEs of Public Service departments and statutory Crown entities.
