    Labour's calling the resignation of Health NZ's Chief Executive - another "chaotic" change

    Labour's calling the resignation of Health NZ's Chief Executive - another "chaotic" change


    Margie Apa is leaving months earlier than expected.

    It's being called a mutual agreement with Commissioner Lester Levy .

    Acting Labour health spokesperson, Peeni Henare, says the Prime Minister fired his first Health Minister, sacked the Health NZ board, and is now seeing off its Chief Executive.

    He suggests the Prime Minister will run out of people to blame - for what Henare's calling failures in the system.
