The Children's Minister says no frontline roles are being axed in widespread public service cuts.   Oranga Tamariki is proposing a total loss of 447 jobs, and the Education Ministry says more than 500 jobs will go.   It's in response of the Government's demand for 6.5% savings.   Karen Chhour told Heather du Plessis-Allan that they've been adamant no frontline jobs would go in the OT restructure.  She says they need to make sure their frontline is resourced with the tools they need, and that's what part of this restructure is about.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
