Summary, etc Thesis (MA - Criminology) - Victoria University of Wellington, 2009. This thesis explores the experiences of frontline police officers responsible for implementing family violence risk assessment in selected areas of the Waikato District of New Zealand. The study used face to face semi-structured interviews with 30 frontline police officers, focused on their experiences of responding to family violence and their use of risk assessment tools. The research found that officers recognise and support the improvement of the police response to family violence victims. Despite this, the introduction of family violence risk assessment in the district has achieved minimal change. The research found there was a gap between management policy and operational practice due to issues with training and tensions between management directives and established practice by frontline police. The challenges faced by New Zealand Police are similar to the problems experienced by police organisations in other Western countries implementing similar reforms.
