The Government's revealed this year's stocktake for diversity on public sector boards and committees.
Maori representation amidst members rose 1.2 per cent on 2020, and Pacific people saw a 0.8 per cent boost.
A strategic consultant says ethnic groups make up about 20 per cent of the population, but have just five per cent representation on boards.
