District health boards

District health boards (DHBs) were established in January 2001 through the New Zealand Public Health and Disability Act 2000.[71] At that time, the 21 DHBs had their boards appointed by the Minister of Health, Annette King. Each board has up to eleven members and seven of those are elected in local elections.[71] As defined in section 7 of the Local Electoral Act 2001, board members for DHBs are to be elected as part of the local elections.[72] The 2001 local elections were thus the inaugural elections for the country's then 21 DHBs. Elections were based on candidacies in local wards.[3]
