There is a huge opportunity to upgrade the quality of our the fact that around 25% of our immigration but right now, public angst over the workforce wasn’t born here is sheer numbers of migrants sees the Government testimony to that. If used properly not seizing that option.

  • Roy Morgan Poll Most Accurate on NZ Election
    Article No. 8549 Available on www.roymorgan.com Link to Roy Morgan Profiles Tuesday, 20 October 2020 Roy Morgan Poll most accurate on NZ Election – predicting a ‘crushing’ Labour majority for PM Jacinda Ardern The most accurate poll of the weekend’s New Zealand Election was the final Roy Morgan New Zealand Poll which predicted a ‘crushing’ victory for Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern and a governing majority for the Labour Party. The official results show the Labour Party with 49.1% of the Party Vote finishing well ahead of National on 26.8%, Act NZ on 8%, the Greens on 7.6% and NZ First on only 2.7%. The final Roy Morgan New Zealand Poll released two days before last Saturday’s election showed the Labour Party with a Parliamentary majority winning lead on 47.5% - closer than the final polls for both 1 News Colmar Brunton (46%) and Newshub-Reid Research (45.8%). Roy Morgan predicted National support of 28.5% which was significantly closer to National’s election result of 26.8% than either Newshub-Reid Research (31%) or 1 News Colmar Brunton (31.1%). All three polls under-estimated the extent of Labour’s support and over-estimated support for National but the average error for the two major parties was only 1.65% for Roy Morgan compared to 3.65% for 1 News Colmar Brunton and 3.8% for Newshub-Reid Research. Roy Morgan was also closest when considering the results of smaller parties such as Act NZ and the Greens and minor parties such as the Maori Party and The Opportunities Party (TOP).

  • New Zealand Election Statement
    2020 New Zealand General Election Responses to issues September 2020 1 Introduction Prior to all government elections in New Zealand and Australia, the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons asks Fellows, Trainees and Specialist International Medical Graduates to identify issues of specific concern and relevance to the delivery of surgical services. We then provide an opportunity for political parties to outline their policy positions on these key issues and distribute these responses to our membership. RACS New Zealand members identified five key focus areas relevant to the New Zealand 2020 General Election: A single Electronic Health Record More collaboration amongst District Health Boards Separation of health service delivery and health policy leadership responsibilities The adequacy and stability of our health infrastructure Meeting the challenges of pandemics This document contains the responses to these issues from ACT New Zealand, the Green Party of Aotearoa New Zealand, the New Zealand Labour Party, the New Zealand National Party and The Opportunities Party. No responses were received from the New Zealand First Party or the Māori Party. You may wish to consider the responses provided in this document before casting your vote in New Zealand’s 2020 general election. 2 A Single Electronic Health Record Effective sharing of patient-centric information across the continuum of care, via an Electronic Health Record (EHR), can improve collaboration between providers, improve patient safety and care quality, and increase the effectiveness and efficiency with which the health system can address the needs of individuals in a personalised way, ultimately resulting in better outcomes for the patient. EHR systems have resulted in workforce productivity and efficiency gains for many healthcare systems overseas.
