Nau Mai, Haere Mai
We check that organisations supporting and working with tamariki, rangatahi, and their whānau are meeting their needs, delivering services effectively, and improving outcomes.
We monitor compliance with the Oranga Tamariki Act and the associated regulations, including the National Care Standards. We also look at how the wider system (such as early intervention) is supporting tamariki and rangatahi under the Oversight of the Oranga Tamariki System Act.
