Two years since the establishment of Oranga Tamariki - the Ministry for Children, more children and young people than ever are in the care of the state.

It also promised more early intervention and targeted support for at-risk children, more support for caregivers and better resourcing for social workers. What has changed in the past two years?

Kathryn speaks with Oranga Tamariki Chief Executive Grainne Moss, and Commissioner for Children, Andrew Becroft.
