Oranga Tamiriki - yet another Ardern/Hipkins/Davis/Labour entity boosted with 35% more staff (4609 vs 3424 in 2017) and more diversity (ie. more Maori & Pacifica staff).
And what have they achieved?
More staff but more death of toddlers.
And who is the Minister of Children?

The chair of the Whanau Ora Commissioning Agency says Oranga Tamariki is not up to the job and fears more children under 3 will keep dying if issues are not addressed.
This comes after the uncle of slain toddler Ruthless-Empire revealed he had contacted Oranga Tamariki in December, asking for the child to be uplifted over significant concerns he had about the way he was treated, believing he was in “danger” as well as the “disgusting” conditions he was living in.

"The data shows that since Oranga Tamariki was created in April 2017, there have been at least 57 child homicides. Some of the victims died as a result of beatings, traumatic brain injuries, asphyxiation or stabbings.
Stuff understands this information was circulated with Oranga Tamariki’s partner agencies, including police and justice officials. However, the agency refused to publicly release it."
