520			_aThe Family Violence Courts in New Zealand are a judicial initiative. The first one was established at the Waitakere District Court in 2001, and the second in 2005 in the Manukau District Court. The Manukau Family Violence (FV) Court, the focus of this evaluation, was established to address systemic delays in responding to family violence occurring at that time in the Manukau District Court. Proponents of this court believed a dedicated court for family violence matters would provide a more rapid response to family violence, which would then encourage victims to remain involved with the process, and increase defendants’ willingness to be accountable for their offending. This evaluation sought to identify aspects of this court process which were working well and those which required improvement, as well as consider the extent to which the Manukau FV Court was meeting its objectives. This information would assist ongoing development of processes at the Manukau FV Court, and also identify examples of best practice for those implementing additional FV Courts in New Zealand. Using both qualitative and quantitative methods, the evaluation draws on material collected through interviews with a range of key stakeholders, as well as that gained from a statistical reconviction analysis and a sentencing study.
