  3. Waitangi Tribunal: truth, reconciliation, and compensation

  4. Newspeak? • Current HNZ tenants most deprived 5% of households • Healthy Housing Programme • 27% fall in the total number of acute and arranged hospitalisations of year • 61% fall in hospitalisations after crowding reduction • Excluding 55 % of applicants is a faster path to overcrowding, infectious disease (25% of acute hospitalisations) + homelessness • Unfair to reduce small stock of social housing when private rental properties unregulated + • some landlord’s discriminatory ? ? ?

  7. Built Environment -- Private rental housing stock requirements extremely limited Boarding houses and camping grounds increasingly housing of last resort Insecurity of tenure -> residential mobility -> irregular primary care -> school attendance + +

  8. Evidence-based policies + Government funding– underpinned by research – has led to step change in retrofitting insulation and heaters for home-owners co-benefits: health, education, energy + climate change + Experimentwithmixed-tenure, low carbon urban houses with low operating costs Develop economies of scale + Social Inclusion

  27. Pacific people in nz 2011 • Pacific peoples constitute 6.9% of NZ population (2006 Census) • 38% Pacific population under 15yr of age • By 2051, NZ student population will rise from 1 in 10 as it is currently to 1 in 5 • Poorer life expectancy • Highest mortality rate for cerebrovascular disease • Mortality rate for cardiovascular disease higher than that for non-Maori non-Pacific People • Diabetes • Obesity • Amenable mortality

  28. Pacific Child Health in NZ • 85% Pacific children completely immunised by age 2 • Highest failure rates new entrant hearing tests • At 5yr of age, only 32% Pacific children caries free • Pacific children aged 5-14yr are 6x more likely to be obese than other children in NZ • Unintended pregnancy and longtermconsequences: poor antenatal care, obstetric complications, low birth weight infants, poor educational attainment and child abuse (The Best Intentions: Unintended Pregnancy and the Well-Being of Children and Families, 2005) • Rheumatic Fever • Rheumatic Heart Disease • Meningitis • Highest hospitalisations for asthma

  32. Focus on youth • Disadvantage at different stages of life affects adult health (Power and Kuh 2006) • Are there circumstances which make inequality later in life more likely? • “Although all children gain from quality early childhood education, society benefits most from the investment in children from low-income or disadvantaged homes” (Improving the Transition, May 2011)

  33. A Focus on Reducing inequalities For Pacific Peoples System Response • Legislation NZ Public Health and Disability Act 2000 – “...to reduce health disparities by improving the health outcomes of Maori and other population groups...” • National strategies • New Zealand Health Strategy 2000 • Primary Health Care Strategy 2001 • Public Health • Pacific Health and Disability Action Plan 2002 and Pacific Provider Development Fund • Quality focus • Evidence based guidelines • Primary health care accreditation • Performance management • Research and evaluation • Workforce development

  38. Lessons and opportunities Big problems require a plan Local solutions to local issues, with national standards • Immunisations, B4SC, FVIP, ASH… • Can reduce inequalities National solutions • PSNZ clinical networks • Annual “State of the Nation’s Children Report” • Scorecard • Green Paper • Difficult choices with uncertain answers • Universal entitlement vs targeted to guarantee needs met? • Parents’ rights vs state’s right to require behaviours? • Engage media to discuss the issues, c.f. conflict • Opinion pieces, public debates & presentations
