ANZASW Media Release

The President of ANZASW, James Makowharemahihi supports New First’s call for mandatory registration of social workers included in the Vulnerable Children’s Act. Makowharemahihi however believes that this does not go far enough. In his view registration must become mandatory for all social workers.

Many people will require social work support at some stage in their lives from early childhood through to their senior years. Anyone requiring social work support is entitled to receive the highest quality intervention from a professional who is qualified and accountable.

Makowharemahihi urges Minister Anne Tolley to move to mandatory registration of social workers with urgency. New Zealand First is urged to advocate for the mandatory registration of all social workers.

ENDS
