TextPublication details: Ministry of Social Development, 2014 Wellington, New Zealand :Description: electronic document (60 pages); PDF file: 1.49 MBSubject(s): Online resources: Summary: The 2012 White Paper for Vulnerable Children acknowledges that children “who are at greatly elevated risk of maltreatment … require more intensive and cross-cutting interventions to address the depth and breadth of vulnerabilities they present” (p.58). In order to intervene early to mitigate the risk of maltreatment, the White Paper includes a proposal to use predictive risk modelling (PRM) tools to assist professionals in identifying children who are at risk of abuse or neglect. The goal of using PRM tools is to support an early preventive intervention strategy. The implementation of PRM tools is subject to the outcomes of a feasibility study, ethical evaluation and trialling. This paper reviews the ethical issues for Māori. The final feasibility report, companion technical report and interim review reports, and ethical issues report and reviews, and 2 reviews of the ethical issues for Māori report are also available via the Access the website link.
