63740 (2024). Hon Willow-Jean Prime to the Minister for Children

63740 (2024). Hon Willow-Jean Prime to the Minister for Children: What percent, if any, of Oranga Tamariki contracts with community providers that have been reduced since the 30 June 2024 have transition plans confirmed, as of 30 October 2024?

Hon Karen Chhour: I am advised that Oranga Tamariki and community providers have jointly confirmed 103 transition plans. I am further advised that Oranga Tamariki does not differentiate between reduced or discontinued transition plans as a provider may have several services within their Outcome Agreement(s) that may be impacted differently within one plan. A percentage cannot be provided as Oranga Tamariki are still working though the impacts with providers and some providers may not require a transition plan.
