520 _aThis submission provides a snapshot of the information the Commission received from predominantly civil society organisations and some government agencies relating to the impact of COVID-19 on domestic violence against women. The report covers the period from when the restrictions began in Aotearoa New Zealand on 26 March 2020 and covers the three-month period since this time. This is not a comprehensive account of the situation in Aotearoa New Zealand. Information directly from women and children who were victims/survivors of violence was unable to be adequately or appropriately gathered for this submission. The Commission is aware that the Parliamentary Under-Secretary to the Minister of Justice is providing a submission on behalf of the New Zealand Government. While also drawing from government data, this submission aims to highlight the lived experiences of women as witnessed by those grassroots organisations working to support them, rather than that of the government. The submission opens with general comments about the New Zealand environment relating to violence against women and restrictions put in place during COVID19. It then responds to each of the Special Rapporteur’s questions, before concluding with some recommendations. (From the document). Record #6743
