Two days in Wellington meeting parliamentarians across the House ahead of November's election. Our delegation was led by Dr Jash Agraval, Chair of the NZ Branch, and Dr Shaun Costello, Chair of the NZ Radiation Oncology Executive.

Our thanks to Hon Casey Costello MP, Associate Minister of Health (NZ First); Todd Stephenson MP, Spokesperson for Health (ACT); Reuben Davidson MP, Spokesperson for Science, Technology and Innovation (Labour); and Catherine Wedd MP, Member for Tukituki (National). We were also glad to speak with Hon David Seymour MP, Deputy Prime Minister and Associate Minister of Health (ACT), during our time at Parliament.

We discussed RANZCR's four election priorities: regulation of AI used as a medical device, connected digital infrastructure for imaging and cancer care, a permanent funding solution for maternity ultrasound, and cancer treatment and imaging infrastructure that keeps pace with demand.

We look forward to working with all political parties to ensure delivery of these priorities.
