66265 (2024). Hon Willow-Jean Prime to the Minister for Children: Do any staff who were initially stood down due to the allegations emerging from the 2021 Newsroom investigation into Oranga Tamariki’s Te Oranga care and protection facility in Christchurch still work at Oranga Tamariki, and if so, do they have any contact with children or young people?

Hon Karen Chhour: Yes. Chief executives are responsible for matters relating to the employment of individuals within their agency.
