I can see many obvious benefits in decentralising WINZ call centre and case management functions to local community groups, at the same level of funding. So why do we still need WINZ offices at all?

Because if we didn't have them, the benefit system would go the same way as the mental health system. It's much easier to get away with de-funding those community groups by 1000 cuts while expecting the same outputs, than to do it to WINZ.
