Included is a brief best practice example from the Ministry of Social Development's "Agenda for Children" (2002). Topics related to family violence that were addressed at the symposium include child abuse; children's safety; emotional, physical and sexual child abuse; and law and justice, notably solutions to child abuse with particular recommendations to repeal s59 of the Crimes Act (1961). Feedback on these topics, received in breakout groups at the symposium, is summarised in the paper.
