The commission also heard how records about children previously housed in PSO care were deliberately destroyed in 2017 and 2018. The organisation ran two care facilities, Glendining Presbyterian Children’s Homes in Dunedin’s Andersons Bay, and Marama Home in Lawrence. Ms O’Neill also recalled reading mentions of a paedophile ring situation relating to a case raised in 2020.
