House of Representatives
Supplementary Order Paper
Wednesday, 5 July 2017
Children, Young Persons, and Their Families (Oranga Tamariki) Legislation Bill
Proposed amendment
Marama Fox, in Committee, to move the following amendment:
Clause 8
In clause 8, new section 5(1)(d)(ii), delete “, where practicable,”
(page 21, lines 11 and 12).
Explanatory note
This Supplementary Order Paper amends clause 8 in the Children, Young Persons, and Their Families (Oranga Tamariki) Legislation Bill. We propose that the qualifier “where practicable”
be deleted. The aspirations of whānau, hapū and iwi to be recognised and involved within the context of the child’s place within the community could potentially be thwarted by the qualifier “where practicable”
.
This use of a qualifier does not support the importance and the increased presence of whānau, hapū, and iwi throughout this Bill, in particular new sections 5 and 13.
