Priyanca Radhakrishnan: Labour's Disability spokesperson on the ministry coming under review

Labour's Disability spokesperson says funding was laid out for the Ministry of Disabled People until 2027.   It's under review after abruptly announcing funding changes that ultimately resulted in Minister Penny Simmonds' demotion.   A briefing is now suggesting multiple problems, dating back to its formation under the previous government.  Priyanca Radhakrishnan told Mike Hosking that it had been looking at fixing the issues it inherited from the Ministry of Health.  She says in the interim, Penny Simmonds should have ensured it had the funding to meet cost pressures while working on systemic issues.  LISTEN ABOVE   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
