22918 (2024). Dr Tracey McLellan to the Minister of Corrections

22918 (2024). Dr Tracey McLellan to the Minister of Corrections: What progress, if any, has been made in the quarter January–March 2024 in implementing the goal ‘Tāngata whaikaha Māori are enabled to access to supports they need when they need it', as part of the Disability Action Plan?

Hon Mark Mitchell: I am advised this is a short term action in Corrections’ Disability Action Plan. This action is being enabled through the recent recruitment of four new Social Worker Disability and Older Persons roles. For further information about these roles, I refer the member to my response to WPQ 22914 (2024).
