The government highlighed retention problems as one of the main reasons nurses should be treated differently. The Ministry of Health used district health board vacancies, exit rates from professions, 10-year forecasting models, Patient Flow Indicators and the advice of chief clinical officers to provide advice to MBIE. RNZ has again asked for which DHBs the prime minister was referring to that had requested nurses to be in the 'work to residence' category. "Discussions were held with the Health Workforce Advisory Board, which has a representative from DHBs to represent DHB workforce interests, however DHBs were not directly consulted." "MBIE officials only consulted directly with Ministry of Health on including nurses on the Green List," Craig said. It clarified that it asked NZACA and the HCHA about the Rebalance proposals generally, which included mentioning that nurses were intended to be provided a work to residence pathway through the Green List. RNZ asked last week for clarification of what, if any, input the DHBs' representative had and received a further statement today.
Ministerial consultation on the proposals occurred as a matter of course, and included both the minister and Associate Minister of Health." "Discussions with the Health Workforce Advisory Board, which has a representative from DHBs to represent DHB workforce interests, were also held. "The groups that were included in consultation that had interest in nurses were the New Zealand Aged Care Association (NZACA) and the Home and Community Health Association. "At the direction of government, The Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE) engaged in a short period of targeted consultation with a number of stakeholders on the Immigration Rebalance proposals, including those for the Green List," said immigration policy manager, Andrew Craig.
The fast-track jobs also include multimedia specialists, food technologists and IT workers and they are expected to be granted residence within six weeks of applying, from next month.Īn Official Information Act response shows only two groups were consulted on the nurses' place on the Green List, although one of them - the Aged Care Association - has since denied it was. It has now also emerged that independent contractors on six-month fixed term contracts can also become residents immediately. Plunket, Family Planning and the Nurses Organisation are among the groups which were not consulted, and which have been calling on the government to change its policy in order to attract international nurses. The government has stressed health boards' input was critical in the May decision to make nurses wait for two years for residence, compared to immediate applications for doctors, engineers and scientists. Instead, it held discussions with a Health Workforce Advisory Board, which has a DHB representative. Please use caution if you have experience with epilepsy or any of its symptoms.The government never directly consulted with district health boards over whether it should offer international nurses the same "straight to residence" that migrant doctors will get.
