520			_aThis multi-agency statement is based on a letter of agreement signed by Child, Youth and Family, Work and Income and Family and Community Services (service lines of Ministry of Social Development), New Zealand Police, Ministry of Education and Immigration New Zealand on 20 December 2012 (see NZ Police media release). Forced marriage is defined in the letter of agreement as one where "a marriage is conducted without the valid consent of both parties where duress is a factor. Duress may include physical, psychological, financial, sexual and emotional pressure. Duress may occur prior to, during the arrangement of a forced marriage and continue once it has taken place." Police have worked closely with Child, Youth and Family, other Government agencies, NGOs and communities over a 12 month period to develop a process around disclosures of forced marriage. The LOA sets each agency's commitment to supporting victims and their policy and procedures in response to forced marriage as well as setting out how the response will be coordinated between agencies. Information about the collaborative and individual responses that will be provided by involved agencies can be located on their websites. (from the media release).
