The progress towards transformation of care and protection under Oranga Tamariki has been often raised by the public. And accordingly, we learnt that in 2021-2022, $23 million was allocated to improving the wellbeing of tamariki and whānau with the greatest need. The Minister told us this funding will enable the ministry to devolve power to Māori and to regions in New Zealand and that this funding will support the ministry's response to the report of the ministerial advisory board, which will be discussed later.
