As well as discussion of the Family Violence Act 2018, Child Poverty Reduction Act 2018 and amendments to the Oranga Tamariki Act 1989. The leading family law commentators in New Zealand have again provided insightful and authoritative essays, suitable for use in policy, study and practice.
The ninth edition of the New Zealand Law Dictionary has been revised to include an expanded list of legal terms. As a result, this new edition contains over 5,000 entries.

With up-to-date definitions and usage, the Dictionary is an authoritative guide to the language of law in New Zealand.
