Independent Children’s Monitor
The Monitor’s job is to provide independent assurance that supports agencies to ensure the wellbeing and interests of tamariki (children) and rangatahi (young people) are at the centre of how the state delivers care, and to support and hold to account the organisations that provide that care.
We will do this by independently monitoring the Oranga Tamariki system to provide assurance that Oranga Tamariki and approved organisations are meeting their obligations under the Oranga Tamariki Act 1989; and promote improvements to the system by identifying and sharing insights on examples of high performance and areas for improvement.
It is early days - establishment and operations of the Monitor started on 1 July 2019, and it will take at least 18 months and some legislative change before we are fully implemented.
You can find information here and on our website about the opportunities to join us.
