Gwenda Kendrew: Aviva General Manager on delays in protection orders
from Early Edition with Ryan Bridge · host Newstalk ZB
There are concerns family violence victims are waiting too long for protection orders to be served. Data released under the Official Information Act reveals nearly half of temporary protection orders served by Police in 2025 took four days or longer to reach respondents. Northland recorded the longest average delay at 16 days. Aviva's Gwenda Kendrew told Ryan Bridge their concern is the state of limbo the process leaves them in, unsure of their safety, rights, and the protection they have around them. She says it is a piece of paper, but it says a whole lot about how they can live their life safely from then on. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
