We were established in 2019 to monitor compliance with the National Care Standards (NCS) Regulations.

On 1 May 2023 our role was expanded to monitor the whole of the oranga tamariki system. The oranga tamariki system includes services like early support, care, youth justice and transitions out of care. This also includes work to support whānau wellbeing and reduce risks to tamariki.

The Oversight of the Oranga Tamariki System Act requires that we act independently in developing our monitoring tools and approaches, and in carrying out our monitoring function. This ensures that our operations and findings are independent from Ministers and government agencies, and that our monitoring can be trusted by both the public, and decision makers.
