Rt Hon. Helen Clark to the Prime Minister:

Q: Does her statement questioning why we do not have "mums and dads who care enough about the health status of their kids to take them to the doctor or to the dentist" mean that her Government does not accept any responsibility for the lack of improvement in child health status in South Auckland since 1994; if not, what responsibility does her Government accept?

Question 9.

Rod Donald to the Minister for State Owned Enterprises:
