Hon NANAIA MAHUTA (Minister for Māori Development): I receive multiple reports weekly from Te Puni Kōkiri regional teams who are working alongside Māori communities and iwi to implement a resurgence plan across the motu. While there are regional variances, we know that Māori make up approximately 16 percent of the South Auckland population. Specifically on the ground in South Auckland, we know that the key issues being reported across Tāmaki-makau-rau concern job losses, a change in household income to pay bills and get necessities, non - COVID-19 health and welfare needs, access to kai and personal care items, provision of masks, education, and social and mental health issues. In conjunction with the Government's COVID support package, Whānau Ora commissioning agencies, iwi in the Tāmaki collective, Māori health and social service providers are all contributing to a response across Tāmaki-makau-rau. During this resurgence phase, it's becoming increasingly evident that a joined-up effort of Māori and Pacific health providers is necessary to ensure their communities have access to the necessary health and welfare supports to help whānau get through this phase of resurgence of COVID-19.
