Extension granted for Southern DHB Statement of Performance Expectations

The Statement of Performance Expectations (SPE) contains the service and financial expectations for Southern DHB for the year to 30 June 2021.

The Minister of Health has agreed to extend the timeline for finalising and publishing our 2020/21 SPE to 15 August 2020.  The reason the extension has been granted is to reflect the revised timelines agreed for finalising 2020/21 DHB annual plans due to COVID-19 impacts, and to ensure quality SPE documents are produced that align with DHB annual plans and appropriately reflect COVID-19 recovery.
