My question is to the Attorney-General. Women across Australia are not getting the legal support they need to escape or recover from family, domestic or sexual violence. The independent review of the National Legal Assistance Partnership, released last week, has recommended that funding for women's legal services be separated from the general community legal centres stream. A dedicated funding stream would ensure that legal assistance reaches victims-survivors of gendered violence. Will the government support this recommendation?
