I would like to know for the time frame 2000 - today: How many adoptions per origin country were recognised per year by the Department of Internal Affairs? How many Visas are granted by Immigration New Zealand based on overseas adoption by a New Zealand citizen living in New Zealand? Both should be searchable by country of origin and date range

This information was completely missing and unknown by the presenters from the Information Session given by Oranga Tamariki.
Many of the couples in the session were interested in inter-country adoption stats, however this data was not provided.
The only stats we were given is that there was 1 domestic non-kin adoption in 24/25 and 1 in 25/26 with a waiting pool of 46 and 48 applicants each year respectively.
This was incredibly disheartening considering there were 27 potential applicants in the session.

Give a clear understanding of the statistics regarding adopting from overseas countries.
