agree the timeframe and discuss the process for consultation on the proposed change. Failing agreement, the timeframe will be twelve weeks.

(c) Within the applicable timeframe, the Ministry of Health will hold meetings with the New Zealand College of Midwives and the New Zealand Medical Association to take their views into account when the Ministry of Health makes a decision on the proposed change.

(d) Following this consultation, if the Ministry of Health decides to issue a variation or terminate this Notice, all Authorised Practitioners will receive one month’s notice of the change.

4.2 A proposal to vary this Notice may also be made by the New Zealand College of Midwives and/or the New Zealand Medical Association where the proposal involves substantive changes to the Notice. The consultation process in clause A4.1 will apply.

4.3 An Authorised Practitioner may withdraw from coverage under this Notice at any time by giving the Ministry of Health not less than four weeks written notification. Such notification will terminate the relationship under this Notice between the Authorised Practitioner and the Ministry of Health and thereafter the Authorised Practitioner shall not be entitled to claim for any services under this Notice. Termination will not affect the rights of the Ministry of Health, where there has been a prior breach of this Notice by the Authorised Practitioner, or the rights of the Authorised Practitioner, where payment is outstanding.

4.4 The Ministry of Health may terminate or vary an authorisation of an Authorised Practitioner or Organisation where:

(a) the Authorised Practitioner or Organisation has breached the terms of this Notice and has not remedied the breach after being given reasonable opportunity by the Ministry of Health to do so; or

(b) in the opinion of the Ministry of Health, the conduct of the Authorised Practitioner or Organisation demonstrates an inability or unwillingness to meet the terms and conditions of the Notice or of that Authorised Practitioner’s or Organisation’s authorisation.

In such situations, the Ministry of Health will notify the Authorised Practitioner or Organisation in writing of its intention to terminate or vary the authorisation and will provide written reasons for such action. The Authorised Practitioner or Organisation will have twenty working days from receipt of such notification to rectify any problems that may exist or to demonstrate to the Ministry of Health that such problems do not exist. If at the end of the twenty working day period, the Ministry of Health is not satisfied with the response from the Authorised Practitioner or Organisation, then it may give final notice of twenty working days of termination or variation of the authorisation.

4.5 Despite clause A4.4, the Ministry of Health may terminate an authorisation immediately when:

(a) the Authorised Practitioner does not meet the definition of an Authorised Practitioner contained in Part B of this Notice; or

(b) the Authorised Practitioner has not claimed payment under this Notice for a period of three years or more.
