Resignation of Memo Musa as CEO of Good Health Whanganui
Tariana Turia, MP for Te Tai Hauauru
27 March 2008
"Memo Musa has done the right thing in resigning, and accepting that it is the responsibility of management to be
accountable for the whole operation of the District Health Board," said Tariana Turia, Maori Party MP for Te Tai
Hauauru.
"There have been too many issues creating the perception of a hospital in crisis, and something had to change in order
to maintain public confidence.
"Mr Musa has taken personal responsibility, even though criticism of the DHB was not personal to him - though I suspect
it may have seemed so to him from time to time," she said.
"I respect Memo Musa's decision, and I have no doubt that his next employer will benefit from the skills and experience
he has to offer," Mrs Turia added.
