Peter Dutton is promising that a Coalition Government will commit an additional $90 million to address family and domestic violence across Australia. The Liberal leader says the investment recognises the complexities of family and domestic violence, and that more action is needed to build on the continued implementation of the National Plan to End Violence against Women and Children 2022–2032 (National Plan). The Coalition’s focus will be on prevention, early intervention and crisis response.

And the Coalition will also launch a Royal Commission into Sexual Abuse in Indigenous communities. The Liberal Leader says this announcement highlights his personal commitment to address family and domestic violence in Australia. “As a former police officer who attended numerous domestic violence call-outs, I know the lifelong impact of these horrific crimes,” Dutton said. “A Government I lead will be focused on delivering real change so that families, women and children are safer and we end family and domestic violence.” During the Albanese Government’s first term, a National Cabinet was held on domestic violence following a shocking spate of murders. Labor announced $4.7 billion for women’s gender based violence prevention and frontline services. The Government has also established a Leaving Violence Partner Payment, so that those people fleeing violent situations can access up to $5,000 in financial support along with referral services, risk assessments and safety planning.
