    http://www.scoop.co.nz/stories/PA180...alth-pilot.htm That's just great, (sarcasm intended)...why don't they just throw these people under a bus while they're at it.

    This gone and cochlear implants expansion gone. Not a lot of money involved so I wonder about the reasoning. Not many votes to lose as numbers are fairly small? The government thinks the initiatives won't wash their face? Trouble at Mr Robertson's mill? What?

    I see Mr Bridges on the telly referred to more 'stealth cuts' on the way. With a large and experienced opposition they might not stay too stealthy.

    Yeap just throw all those people under the bus too. Plenty of money to pay Winston Peter's $900 bribe for his pet Island projects and Shane Jones pet regional development fund of $1b and while we're at it another $2.3b for Orion replacements. No extra money to help the tens of thousands of P addicts and mental health needy though. Plenty of "logic" with this new Government eh.

    This was a good pilot that should continue and so easy could if they wished.At the same time they just settled a pay equity claim for the mental health sector back dated to 1 July 2017, it did not need to be backdated that far given the tax rates on the lump sum at a higher proportion of it will be returned to the crown regardless.

    This government needs to sell its actions better, a great deal of the industrial relations issues now are as a result of the age care sector loss under National...
