A social workers' union head is doubtful new law coming in on July 1 will ease the outcry over the removal of at-risk Māori babies into state care.

But others are expressing doubt that changes coming in next month will make a significant difference.
Lucy Sandford-Reed is chief executive of the Association for Social Workers.
