Read the new research on children's media use in NZ

A new research report on New Zealand children’s media use provides important information for caregivers, educators and broadcasters across all media genres, Broadcasting Minister Trevor Mallard said today.

Trevor Mallard launched the Broadcasting Standards Authority (BSA) report Seen and Heard: Children’s Media Use in Auckland today. The report is based on a 2007 survey of 600 children aged between 6 and 13, and their primary caregivers. It includes information about the use of newer media such as the internet and cellphones.
