Dear Oranga Tamariki—Ministry for Children,

 

Please provide information on the following:

- Standards that Oranga Tamariki assesses against in terms of governance
of its services, such as quality. In particular, how are the
consumer/child-facing aspects of OT assessed and against what standards?

- What systems and processes are in place to build capacity in the
consumer-facing workforce, and what credentialing systems are in place to
ensure that consumer-facing capability meets professional and regulatory
standards?

- Outline what proportion of roles that require a social worker, are
currently filled by a social worker. Outline the process for establishing
whether workers have suitable capabilities to fill a role that would
otherwise require a registered social worker.

- Outline the process to develop and implement training for social workers
to undertake court-based work. Provide advice on any training program to
upskill a proportion of social workers in court-based work, such as
training in law.

- Outline the risk and incident management systems that OT has in place,
and what industry standards these are based on.

- Provide any reviews that have assessed the balance of registered social
workers or other clinicians within the organisation and any risk
assessments undertaken to address an imbalance between people who have
little or no health/social experience with those who do.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Rodney Parsons
