Nice Douglas Adams reference in that twitterstream.

Thanks. I'm still not clear if they have moved funding from lower needs to higher needs people or cut the overall amount.
I thought District Annual Plans had to be publically consulted on for changes - unless they are somehow defining this as an insignificant difference from previous DAPs.
Note that none of Ryall's health targets are about support services, so the article is proably correct in suggesting the focus would be on elective ops and suchlike instead.
I can't see enough to split out non-disability budgets, like some separately funded older people's services. Despite disability support funding this year making up $208m of their $1213m income (about one in every six dollars), the DHB has no disability performance targets at all. Sadly that is far from unique.
And real people and their families pay the price.

Thanks for the update, Joe. It's not that they have run out, just decided to spend it differently. I'm also hoping it's not another outbreak of the dreaded "restorative home help" model. Did you contact Anderton or another MP?

I read the cheating story as justification of the paper's initial angle - and the story is the stonewalling by Lincoln that took several years to crack.

That's a mighty big toy.

I interpret it as fucking gross
I trust that's reliably replicable grossness determined by a large scale lab study. :)

I have a pen that looks exactly like that rocket above
And some leftover V2 components prop up the building overlooking Aotea Square.
