Health Minister Simeon Brown has revealed the make-up of the new Health Zealand Board - who will take over in a fortnight.

They, along with a Crown Observer, will replace the Commissioner and Deputy Commissioners appointed last year.

Experienced clinical director Doctor Andrew Connolly, and current Deputy Commissioner Roger Jarrold are among those appointed.

Brown says Commissioner Lester Levy will stay on as Chair for a year.

"This is about making sure we have continuity of leadership at Health New Zealand. The organisation's going through a reset - making sure it's refocused on patients."
