Report of Concern

Sometimes it is the quality of the information you pass on to Oranga Tamariki and the Police that makes all the difference to protecting a child or young person. Even passing on a car registration number to the police is enough to identify a child you are concerned about.  A Report of Concern is the term used by Oranga Tamariki and the Police for the information you provide.  Please download our Report of Concern resource for further information.

Support Services

It is important to seek support and guidance if you feel concerned. For more helpful links/contacts please download our Support Services resource.

Information Sharing Provisions

The information sharing provisions apply to a large group of government agencies, non-government organisations, health and education services. This download provides a detailed list of these. Any agency covered by this list can request information from another agency under Section 66C of the Oranga Tamariki Act 1989.

Body Map

When reporting tamariki injuries it’s important to document as accurately as possible. Use our body map to help you pinpoint the location of an injury and to classify the injury in detail.
