Health Minister David Clark has been accused of hiding the state of DHB deficits, after he held off the release the latest financial reports.
The year-to-March DHB financial results showed a deficit of $264 million across the 20 DHBs.
All, bar one, are now in deficit – and now the minister is being accused of hiding the extent of the deficits.
Clark said he was “unable” to release up-to-date finances to National’s health spokesperson Michael Woodhouse in July, when his office had been given the figures more than a month earlier.
