With the election drawing near, we have compiled the political parties' policies on family violence.

(At the bottom of the page are links to an upcoming political debate on family violence and a march on Parliament.)

In brief

The National Council of Women asked each of the political parties What would your party do to reduce violence against women? in 600 words or less.

The Women's Election Agenda Aotearoa 2014 published100 steps on the road to equality for women, including steps to address violence against women, and asked the political parties for responses.
