Health and Independence Reports

Director-General of Health’s annual reports on the state of public health


The Director-General of Health is required to report to Parliament annually on the state of public health within New Zealand.

This report brings together a wide range of information from a number of sources, presenting a co-ordinated and cohesive picture of the performance of the health and disability support system.
The Health and Independence report looks at the public funds which are allocated to health and disability support services in New Zealand, the workforce underpinning the sector, the services that are delivered and what those services are achieving by way of their contribution to the health and independence of New Zealanders.

In 2005 and 2006 the Director-General of Health's annual report on the state of public health was published as part of the Ministry's Annual Report.
