FLAVELL SUPRISED BY LABOUR'S NEW WHĀNAU ORA PACKAGELabour deputy leader Kelvin Davis says they are pledging to give Whānau Ora an extra $20 million and a Whānau Ora Reviewer, but Māori Party co-leader Te Ururoa Flavell says more is needed. Labour Māori MPs claim their $20 million booster package will strengthen Whānau Ora and the Independent Reviewer they want at a cost of $500,000 will be responsible to Parliament for notification of where changes are needed. Kelvin Davis says, "Under our $5 billion budget for vulnerable families is where that Whānau Ora funding will come from." In 2015, Whānau Ora secured almost $50 million in funding for 230 navigators to 2019. In 2016, it received an extra $40 million to 2020. In 2017, it got another booster of $10mil for new operating funding to 2021...... www.maoritelevision.com/news/regional/flavell-suprised-labours-new-whanau-ora-package
