Report released 12 December 2019.

"Following the Hāpaitia te Oranga Tangata Safe and Effective Justice Summit in August 2018, Hon Andrew Little, the Minister of Justice, invited me [Chief Victims Advisor] to host a
workshop on victims’ issues, the Strengthening the Criminal Justice System for Victims Workshop (‘victims workshop’) which took place on 4-5 March 2019.

To inform that workshop, I also hosted the Strengthening the Criminal Justice System for Victims Survey (‘online victims survey’) in February 2019.

This report is a synthesis of what victims told me through the survey and the workshop, at subsequent engagements with victims across the country and my experiences talking to victims and personnel within the justice system over my three years as Chief Victims Advisor to Government. While there is little administrative data on victims, this report also draws on recent New Zealand research, such as the New Zealand Crime and Victims Survey (‘NZCVS’)[3]."
