Waikato District Health Board 2010 Triennial Elections

Under the Public Health and Disability Act (2000), the Board must have three committees:

the Community and Public Health Advisory Committee
the Health Waikato Advisory Committee
and the Disability Support Advisory Committee.

These committees help the Board with priority-setting and decision-making. They are made up of Board members and additional appointed members. The Community and Public Health and Disability Support Advisory committees now meet at the same time.
