Summary: The aim of this research was to examine Māori service providers' views on the contracting process and service delivery by the Children, Young Persons and Their Families Agency (CYPFA), currently known as the Department of Child, Youth and Family Services. Thirty-nine Māori social service providers funded by the CYPFA were interviewed between April and May 1999. The study investigated participant responses to factors such as the CYPFA's commitment to the Treaty of Waitangi, relationships between the CYPFA and contracted service providers, adequacy of funding, and the CYPFA's contribution to the long-term development of Māori. Lack of funding and resources from the CYPFA to service providers was identified as a significant barrier to improving outcomes for Māori clients. Some providers also questioned the CYPFA's commitment to the Treaty of Waitangi. Overall, a greater commitment by the CYPFA is needed to develop and improve Māori service providers contracted by the CYPFA.
