Hon TRACEY MARTIN: Data from the New Zealand Longitudinal Study of Ageing concluded that 10 percent of people aged over 65 and living in the community experience abuse. Elder abuse is a form of family violence. It can be physical, psychological, spiritual, or financial, but it is often not recognised when we speak of family violence. I know that my colleague the Minister for Seniors has advocated consistently and is particularly pleased that we are now doubling the funding over the next four years for specialist organisations to respond to this specific sector of an overarching problem.
