04 · What they were told

How the assistants handled this voter's main question

Same party field, different eligibility detail

Both answers compare the same six parties, but the refreshed Labour GP description adds an eligibility qualification and the Te Pāti Māori account gains a stated income threshold and health-card mechanism. The medical-school detail in the earlier National section recedes. Cost relief and actual rural service availability remain separate questions; these policy descriptions are captured claims, not a verified personal entitlement.

The excerpts compare answers to this voter’s main question on 16 October 2026 and 19 October 2026. The figures above include all produced answers for this situation. Each extract opens its dated original answer.
