Two weeks ago, Health Minister David Clark announced he was thinking of installing a commissioner to run Waikato DHB.
He told the health board members he was "seriously dissatisfied with their performance", and gave them two weeks to respond.
That time is up at 5pm on Friday, May 3 and the minister has said he's likely to make a decision next week.
