The Executive Office's Ending Violence Against Women and Girls report shows a series of statistics relating to gender-based violence and their attitudes to it.
Paula Bradshaw MLA, Chair of the Committee for the Executive Office, said: "Tragically we have seen again this week just why ending violence against women and girls must be an absolute priority of the Executive Office and of the Executive as whole.
"The headline figures for female victims of violent crime are already deeply shocking. These newly-released figures show the underlying attitudes, and we can see immediately the number of people, and perhaps even more particularly young women, still experiencing sexual abuse is beyond unacceptable.
"There remains also, even beyond these figures, a tendency to tolerate and even enable misogyny, including in the political sphere, which goes well beyond what we should be allowing."
Alliance VAWG spokesperson, Connie Egan MLA, added: "The number of people who still find certain behaviours acceptable, from cat-calling to sending unwanted messages, should alarm all of us.
"The report also reveals concerning rates of psychological and online violence, which demonstrate how quickly abusive attitudes can turn into abusive actions.
"There is still a long way to go to end violence against women and girls, and these recent figures demonstrate why a central part of tackling and ending gender-based and domestic violence must be addressing the attitudes which, too often, underlie it."
