From Morning Report, 8:47 am on 12 November 2020

Māori social service providers are pushing for government ministries like Corrections to start putting money into Whānau Ora to rehabilitate their people. 

They say they've proved their approach works and they could be making more of a difference.

The head of the South Island Commissioning Agency backs the call, saying that it is a decade overdue.
