Devastating effects of revenge porn highlighted:
A young woman has spoken about how a former lover threatened to show her family, new boyfriend and university compromising photos of her unless she had sex with him.
The case is one of several prosecuted under new cyber-bullying legislation, which, just months old, has already protected several women from the devastating effects of revenge porn.
Agency information sharing not a risk - English:
A data-sharing scheme to help government agencies and social groups protect people would not risk privacy or security, Finance Minister Bill English says.
Mr English outlined the plan to increase data sharing between agencies and NGOs at Parliament today at the third in a series of data hui.
He said increasing access to data would not be at the expense of security or risk people's privacy.

Update on Police piloting video statements for family violence victims:
New Zealand Police in Palmerston North have been piloting recording family violence victims' statements on video using mobile phones. Victims can make statements in their homes rather than being taken to a Police station for a written statement.
Victoria allocates $572m to fund family violence inquiry recommendations:
The Victorian government has allocated more than half a billion dollars towards funding the extensive list of 227 recommendations from the royal commission into family violence, the premier, Daniel Andrews, announced on Wednesday.
CYF 'racist' says Tariana Turia:
Child Youth and Family (CYF) is a racist institution and iwi should be given the right to care for children in state care, former Māori Party leader Tariana Turia says.
Māori comprise 60 percent of children in CYF care and the findings of a review last week showed mass failures in the organisation, leading Minister for Social Development Anne Tolley to say the system was broken.
