The National Health Committee (NHC) was an independent statutory body charged with prioritising new and existing health technologies and making recommendations to the Minister of Health. The NHC was disestablished in March 2016 and their functions streamlined into the Ministry of Health.
Selected NHC publications are available below. If the publication you are looking for is not listed, you can find it in the Ministry library online catalogue.
If you have a query about new technologies, email the Ministry at info@health.govt.nz.
