Auckland's $300m Tōtara Haumaru surgical building remains closed due to staff shortages and undecided funding.

Auckland's new $300 million Tōtara Haumaru surgical building at North Shore Hospital, with 150 beds, remains closed due to staff shortages and undecided funding for its operation in the next financial year. Initially planned to open in December, the facility lacks sufficient staff and has no set opening date. Doctors are concerned about growing surgical waitlists as the facility was expected to help reduce them.
