A Cabinet Minister wants the Government to be more careful around sensitive information. 

An MBIE investigation’s found a confidential cabinet paper, sent to Oranga Tamariki and 19 other agencies was leaked, regarding repealing Fair Pay Agreements. 

It was sent to a union representative from an Oranga Tamariki worker, and then leaked to media.

She hopes Cabinet looks into how it treats sensitive information.
