Key confident '100 day' promises will be delivered

Prime Minister John Key says he is confident the Government will meet all its "100 day" commitments.

Before the election he set out a programme of legislation and other measures that would be introduced within 100 days if National won.

The deadline is Thursday and Mr Key said today the promises would be delivered.

A raft of bills have been introduced to Parliament and announcements have been made about making full courses of the anti-cancer drug Herceptin available and introducing incentives to keep young doctors in the country.

Tomorrow another commitment is due to be fulfilled when Health Minister Tony Ryall announces Plunketline's funding will be restored.
