Often, I am asked by fellow secondary researchers about where they should head first for general research. Here’s a list of suggestions…

• The New Zealand Government's official website (www.govt.nz) which provides a wide range of information on the country's policies, initiatives, and statistics

• The New Zealand Ministry of Business, Innovation, and Employment's website (www.mbie.govt.nz) which provides information on the country's economy, industry, and workforce

• The New Zealand Tourism website (www.newzealand.com) which provides information on the country's tourism industry, including travel guides and destination information

• The New Zealand Transport Agency's website (www.nzta.govt.nz) provides information on the country's transportation infrastructure, including road and public transport information

• Statistics New Zealand's website (www.stats.govt.nz) provides a wide range of official statistics on the country, including demographic, economic, and social data.
