Karen Chhour: Children's Minister on more children are being harmed in Oranga Tamariki's care

More children are being harmed in Oranga Tamariki's care.  The agency's annual report reveals 530 children in care experienced harm in the year ending in March - 23 more than the previous 12 months.  There were more findings of emotional abuse, sexual abuse and neglect in this period - but an eight percent reduction in findings of physical harm. Instances of harm in secure residences fell for the first time - something the Children's Minister is celebrating.  Karen Chhour told Ryan Bridge she's pleased by the 14 percent drop - as it shows recent system changes are yielding results. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
