Is New Zealand’s ‘golden age’ in the past?
A new report reveals that New Zealanders are wealthier, living longer, and are healthier than ever before, and education and training levels are at an all-time high. Disturbingly however, the family and the well being of children is under threat, and the crime rate remains high.
