The Social Report is a government document highlighting the social health and wellbeing of New Zealand society as a whole. This broad report separates social wellbeing into the following indicators: people, health, knowledge and skills, paid work, economic living standards, civil and political rights, cultural identity, the physical environment, safety, and social connectedness. The report records collective social goals and identifies areas for future government attention. The section relating specifically to family violence is 'safety', which considers child abuse and neglect, notification statistics, and intimate partner violence. Current trends, an international comparison, and age, sex and ethnic differences are provided. Intimate partner abuse is summarised in a 'violent offending' category. Although the report covers economic factors and policy, it does not link these as a causal relationship with family violence. However, these statistics may be useful to the researcher. This is the first in a series of annual reports.
