What exactly is Tariana Turia’s “Whanau Ora” policy about? No one knows.
Today in the house Tariana said she “hopes whanau will be no worse off, and hopefully be in a position to enjoy an improved quality of life” because of Whanau Ora.
Tariana Turia wants whanau to take a blind leap of faith in her flagship Whanau Ora policy but then absolutely fails to give assurances that when whanau blindly jump, that they’re actually going to land on something of substance.
Surely there has to be an expectation that whanau will be significantly better off from this policy, not simply a hope they “won’t be worse off?”
