Extension of under Six’s Healthcare Step in Right Direction – Says Peters
New Zealand First is welcoming the government’s eleventh hour conversion to extending under six’s healthcare to out of work hours.
New Zealand First has argued for this policy since it introduced free under six’s healthcare in 1997. What we regret is that it has taken the National Party 14 years, and a month out from an election, to concede the wisdom of wise investment in our young human capital.
