This is our second and final report of our review to answer the question:
"What needs to change to enable pēpi Māori aged 0-3 months to remain in the care of their whānau in situations where Oranga Tamariki is notified of care and protection concerns?"
What's needed is a total transformation of the care and protection system, and a by Māori, for Māori approach. This report provides useful recommendations for improving the system until that transformation is achieved, but ultimately, these are not destinations on their own.
