To summarise,  
“Cancer outcomes in New Zealand are not as good as those in Australia or some other countries for most cancers.  
Reasons include lower funding, fewer staff and equipment, barriers to investigations from primary care and fewer medicines funded.” 
There are also six other articles available for reading, one viewpoint article titled “Simulation in New Zealand: what have you done for me lately?
