This article reports that New Zealand’s Child Protection Investigation Unit—established to investigate serious harm to children in state care and identify systemic failures—is being significantly hindered by poor information-sharing between government agencies and partner organizations. Internal reports reveal that delays, limited access to critical data, and lack of visibility into other agencies’ work have slowed investigations and risk undermining the unit’s effectiveness and impact. Oranga Tamariki and other stakeholders are working to address these issues through new protocols and a multi-agency information-sharing hub, but the article highlights ongoing systemic challenges that echo past failures, raising concerns about whether meaningful improvements in child protection can be achieved without stronger coordination and data sharing.
