I would like please to have a breakdown of spend vs budget over the past two years in all areas, including expenses for executive on food, travel, dining, accommodation, and furnishings, with details of where and what these were attributed to. To be clear, the amount the DHB got from each budget (2019, 2020) and where that spend has been allocated in its entirety.
I would also like to ask what services have been cut over the past two years, and why and whether these are likely to be re established. This included the Eastcare overnight funding. If it could be detailed the reasons why in a population of half a million people, a DHB would close a facility that treats minor to medium-care patients. Detailed rationale is invited.
