Oranga Tamariki Minister Kelvin Davis announces new all-Māori board of advisors

Sir Wira Gardiner was appointed as acting chief executive in her place.
Minister in charge of Oranga Tamariki, Kelvin Davis said the Government was committed to fixing the child care and protection system, and ensuring that Oranga Tamariki was “the organisation that people trust and go to for help”.
“Over time allegations, issues and concerns have been raised regarding Oranga Tamariki and its practice and culture; its lack of coordination with other NGOs; and its relationship with many Māori communities.”
He said the new board would look at three main areas – relationships with families and Māori, professional practice of social workers, and organisational culture.
