Christopher Luxon: Prime Minister on the final day of the 100 Day Plan and the healthcare targets

Published: March 7, 2024, 6:52 p.m.

The Government\u2019s first 100 days is just about up.\xa0

Today is the final day of their 100 day action plan, almost all of their 49 tasks having been ticked off the list.\xa0

Last on the list is setting major targets for the health system, which is due to be crossed off this afternoon.\xa0

Christopher Luxon denied that the plan was simply announcements without actions, telling Mike Hosking that the education adjustments and fixing up security for emergency departments are common sense things.\xa0

He said that the important thing was that the plan was focused, containing things that the cabinet, ministers, and the coalition government were interested in.\xa0

Luxon said that these were the must dos as opposed to the nice to dos, and importantly it\u2019s focused on the public service.\xa0

Five healthcare targets are to be announced today, covering things like immunisation for under twos, cancer treatments, and first surgeries. \xa0
