Hawke’s Bay District Health Board
Tukituki MP Craig Foss has been blogging a series of documents about the HB DHB, released under the OIA. These deserve some critical scrutiny.
- 14 months before the DHB was sacked, Peter Hausmann was suggesting future appointees to the Minister
- He was proposing a way to stop the Board Chair being elected to the Board
- He suggests an Ian Wilson be appointed Deputy Chair
- Ian Wilson, was appointed as Chair of the Review Panel which coincided with the Board being sacked
While WIlson may have been unaware Hasumann was promoting him, it certainly shows that Hausmann was plotting against the democratically elected Board for a long period of time, and presumably having a receptive ear in the Minister who eventually sacked them.
