Accountability Documents
The 2007/08 District Annual Plan (DAP) for Tairawhiti District Health (TDH) is the second to be constructed under the revised strategic plan for the district and turns the words into action. It sets out the major "business not as usual" activities that will be accomplished in the 2007/08 year to deliver on the TDH mission of working together to elevate the wellbeing of Tairawhiti. The DAP has been built on a strong foundation of community consultation and interaction.
Report on TDH performance for the year ended 30 June 2007.
The Crown Entities Act 2006 requires DHBs to prepare a Statement of Intent at or before the start of each financial year. The SoI is for that financial year and at least the 2 following financial years. The purpose of the SoI is to promote public accountability of the DHB by:
- Enabling the Government to participate in the process of setting the DHB's medium-term intentions and undertakings;
- setting out for MPs those intentions and undertakings
- providing a base against which the DHB's actual performance can be later assessed.
The minimum required content of each SoI is set out in section 141 of the Act. It has to agreed with the Minister of Health, who then presents it to Parliament, after which it must be made avaialble to the public by the DHB. After the end of the financial year, the DHB reports its achievements in its Annual Report against the performance.
This Strategic Health Plan is entitled Hauora Titiro Whakamua: Health Looking Forward. It is a chart for a voyage to a goal of oranga/wellbeing for all Te Tairawhiti people. The plan outlines the current status of the Te Tairawhiti population for health and independence then proposes the conceptual philosophy of AWHI as a way to move forward to achieve our goal.
