Family Court and Federal Circuit Court to Merge
A process to ensure domestic violence orders made in Victoria can be enforced Australia-wide has commenced.
A Bill was introduced to the Victorian parliament which cements a commitment made during the Council of Australian Governments (COAG) last year to help establish a National Domestic Violence Order scheme.
The National Domestic Violence Order Scheme Bill 2016 will mark the first step towards ensuring Victorian domestic violence orders can be included in a future national database and enforced across the country.
