Kia ora Member,
Te Whatu Ora stop work meetings got underway today with hundreds of members attending vibrant meetings in central and north Auckland and Whangārei. NZNO members discussed Te Whatu Ora's bargaining offer and next steps for action. It was great to see a strong turn out from members in Auckland and Whangārei and now it's the turn of members across the rest of Aotearoa to get to their local meetings. It is crucial that these meetings are seen to have high attendance as that will send a clear message to Te Whatu Ora about how people are feeling.
