The Northland Health Scheme, proposed by the Special Advisory Committee on Health Service Organisation (Sachso), is about to become a reality. On 20 February 1978 cabinet approved the setting up of a steering committe in Northland to propose a Health Board structure, establish further working parties to consider local aspects of the scheme, initiate the formation of service development groups, assist SACHSO in developing legislation, and take any other steps that seemed appropriate. The chairman of this committee was named on 1 March and others who have agreed to serve are listed in the New Zealand Medical Journal of 22 March (News, 1978). It is now, therefore, an appropriate moment to scrutinise carefully what is proposed and the principles that underlie the proposals.
