The Office of the Children's Commissioner is resourced at $13 million, compared to the Ombudsman's office of $40 million. It's under-resourced, and the expectation for the Office of the Children's Commissioner to continue under-resourced is unreasonable and unfair. This bill is flawed because it takes the view that the oversight—separating what the Office of the Children's Commissioner, internationally renowned and a template for children's advocacy, was doing so well as truth to power, by disestablishing, disembowelling, decapitating, and removing its effective function into what will be a commission and a board. So three separate entities of a Children's Commissioner board, an Independent Children's Monitor, and the Office of the Ombudsman to do what will be disconnected, disjointed, and will not have any measure of coherence or cohesion in representing best the interests and the voices of our children of Aotearoa New Zealand in State welfare care.
