The Children's Minister has set out five new reporting instructions for Oranga Tamariki going forward.Â
How the ministry is performing across these new criteria will be publicly reported every quarter starting from the 2024/2025 financial year.
These include frequency of visits to children in care, timeliness around Reports of Concern, caregiver reports, complaint management and addressing youth offending.
Minister Karen Chhour says data from the Independent Children's Monitor says the ministry has failed to meet these standards.
"I'm going to make sure we get these quarterly reports, so we can see it in real time and actually make sure we're improving things."
