    Working for Families breaches international law: policy research

    Policy research from the University of Otago Wellington has found that in the initial development of Working for Families (WFF) (2002-May 2004) the Government failed to consider children’s rights, including their right to health, breaching binding international law.

    Keep up your good work.
    All the best
