Wellington needs a feasibility report like this completed. We have asked the CCDHB for this to be done and they agreed to do one! - August 2015.

The Ministry of Health Maternity Standards 2011 |
A set of standards to guide the planning, funding and monitoring of maternity services by the Ministry of Health and District Health Boards. We believe that all 3 standards are not being met in the Wellington/Hutt/Wairarapa districts because women have not got a varied choice of where to birth, particularly not for primary birth.
