Children (plural) aged 0-13 yearsView the full glossary Māori reports, and 35 working days to respond to our focused reviews. Once we receive these formal responses we have 10 working days to publish our report, alongside the responses we receive.

These responses often include commitments from agencies to do things that will address issues raised in our reports. We keep track of these commitments, what progress has been made, and whether it has made a difference. You can read the list of commitments dating back to our first full report in 2020/21 here.
