Dawn raids back on agenda

From Morning Report, 7:09 am on 11 July 2023

Dawn raids are back on the political agenda with the release of an independent review urging the government to ban or restrict them.

Many people might have assumed that the issue had been put to bed when former prime minister Jacinda Ardern apologised for the historical practice back in 2021.

But the review found they never stopped, and no ban was put in place.

One person who understands the subject from both a political and cultural vantage is Acting Prime Minister Carmel Sepuloni.

Sepuloni spoke to Corin Dann.
