Poll: Are you pleased with this Waikato med school news?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

City leaders are hailing a significant milestone in the region’s quest to establish the country’s third medical school in Waikato.

The Government at the weekend gave the project a green light when it announced that an initial cost-benefit analysis to establish a third medical school based at the University of Waikato had been completed and had been found to provide confidence for the project to progress to a full business case.
