The Government has issued a directive to all central Government organisations, to prioritise public services on the basis of need rather than ethnicity or other forms of personal identity.

Government contracts will also be awarded on the basis of public value, removing the previous Government’s target for 8% of Government agencies annual contracts to be awarded to Māori businesses.

Minister of Finance and Public Service Nicola Willis tells Heather du Plessis-Allan real analytical rigour is needed for services that want to target specifically based on personal identity.
