Dear Oranga Tamariki—Ministry for Children,

 

Your website has the 2023 s78 report but not the 2024 one. Are you able to
update the website with this?

 

Throughout the last several years there's been a reduction in cases.
Without using the technical language, this presents the appearance that
removals are reducing in children. Has there been a corresponding increase
in the use of non-statutory instruments such as voluntary-care
arrangements that have contributed to this, so that these children are
still being removed from their natural parent but just not by using a
statutory mechanism such as s78?

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Rodney Parsons
