Answer

The modelling referred to is part of the preparation for the Oranga Tamariki (Responding to Serious Youth Offending) Amendment Bill, which has been reported back from the Social Services and Community Committee. I am advised that Oranga Tamariki continues to plan for the passing of the legislation. Final arrangements for these orders will be made closer to enactment.
