Māori health sector concerned Māori needs ignored

From Morning Report, 8:22 am on 30 May 2019

Some in the Māori health sector are concerned Māori needs are being ignored by the government following the long-awaited Mental Health and Addiction Inquiry.

The government responded to the inquiry's recommendations on Wednesday.

It has accepted in principle, or agreed to further consideration of almost all the inquiry's recommendations.

Some Māori health providers aren't impressed. Mani Dunlop has more.
