Board and Committees

Kia ora

Thanks for your interest in our health system.

On 1 July 2022 Te Whatu Ora – Health New Zealand and Te Aka Whai Ora – Māori Health Authority became Aotearoa’s new national health authorities and Canterbury DHB as an entity was disestablished and became part of Health New Zealand. 

Health New Zealand and the Māori Health Authority have their own governance structures, therefore DHB Boards and Advisory Committees ceased to operate on 30 June 2022.

Health New Zealand and the Māori Health Authority are committed to delivering a health system that is simpler and more coordinated, allowing for better and more consistent care to support all New Zealanders to live longer and have the best possible quality of life.

For information about the governance of Te Whatu Ora – Health New Zealand and Te Aka Whai Ora – Māori Health Authority please visit their websites TeWhatuOra.govt.nz and TeAkaWhaiOra.govt.nz

If you have a specific question about health services in Canterbury or the Chatham Islands please email communications@cdhb.health.nz
