Kelvin Davis appoints a team of four (with no places for Pakeha) to advise him on Orangi Tamariki and child welfare
27 Jan 2021 Leave a comment
After a raft of inquiries delving into and recommending what should be done about the politically beleaguered Orangi Tamariki, along with the briefing papers we suppose he has been given, we imagined Children’s Minister Kelvin Davis would have no more need for expert advice.
Wrong. He has just appointed “a skilled and experienced group of people” as the newly established Oranga Tamariki Ministerial Advisory Board.
The group (an all-Maori team) will begin work on 1 February and Davis expects an initial report (to add to the advice provided by the other reports) by 30 June.
The board’s appointment was one of three fresh announcements from the Beehive.
The others were
- Work begins today at Wainuiomata High School to ensure buildings and teaching spaces are fit for purpose; and
- The green light for New Zealand’s first COVID-19 vaccine could be granted in just over a week.

A month or so back, Beijing banned Australian coal imports (dozens of ships loaded with Australian coal are sitting stuck in harbours along China’s south-east coast). Blackouts and power rationing, soon followed.
That China’s rise out of agrarian poverty is miraculous, is undisputed. So is its status as the world’s largest factory; exporting all manner of manufactures around the planet. Central to that has been the growth in coal-fired power generation capacity.
David Wojick takes a detailed look at what’s really powering China’s economic growth and prosperity.
China loves coal far more than wind

We have all heard about China building a lot of coal plants, but the central role coal plays in their booming…
