Have your say on the Families Commission Act Repeal Bill
The Social Services and Community
Committee is seeking submissions on the Families Commission
Act Repeal Bill. The bill aims to improve social science
research and advocacy for families. The bill would repeal
the Families Commission Act 2003 and disestablish the
Families Commission, which operates as Superu.
Some
of the commission’s functions have already been
transferred to the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of
Social Development, and the Social Investment Agency. The
commission’s remaining responsibilities, liabilities, and
assets will be transferred to the Ministry of Social
Development when the legislation begins.
Tell the
Social Services and Community Committee what you
think
Send your submission on the bill by
midnight on Friday 16 March 2018.
