He Kamaka Oranga, the Maori Health team is responsible for policy development, planning and funding, provider management, quality, and clinical leadership across the primary, secondary and tertiary sectors. The Chief Advisor-Tikanga leads the organisation in managing relationships with manawhenua and iwi Maori from a tikanga perspective. The team also provides assistance in managing Treaty of Waitangi risks as a result of its monitoring and evaluation processes. However, it is not the sole responsibility of Maori health and all Auckland DHB services are expected to meet their responsibilities to Maori.  

Maori Health Action Plan, Te Aratakina "A pathway forward" (2006-2010) was launched and blessed in December 2007
