How we value, nurture, and protect our children is a long overdue debate Kiwis are having.
National has led this debate with our Green Paper on Vulnerable Children. When submissions on the Green Paper closed at midnight Tuesday 28 February more than 8800 submissions had been received.
Themes emerging from submissions and public meetings include the need for greater information sharing, support for parents, monitoring children from birth, and mandatory reporting of suspected abuse and neglect.
Work will now begin on the White Paper and from that a 10-year Children’s Action Plan will be developed to be released midway through this year.
