What are the standards, if any, for staffing ratios in Oranga Tamariki youth justice facilities?
Answered by
Hon Karen Chhour

Answer
I am advised there is no set standard staff to young people ratios used by Oranga Tamariki within its Youth Justice Residences. I am further advised staff to young people ratios are determined by the operational needs of each residence and the needs of individual young people, which can vary daily.
