The Morrison government takes domestic violence seriously. The Stop it at the Start campaign uses social marketing and takes a primary prevention approach to help break the cycle of violence by encouraging adults to reflect on their own attitudes and have conversations about respectful relationships with young people aged 10 to 17 years. In November and December, the Stop it at the Start campaign appeared online and on bus shelters and public infrastructure, with the information reaching almost 10 million users. It received six million views and was shared 20,000 times and liked or reacted to 83,000 times, with many instances of the resources being downloaded. Material for the next phase of the campaign, 'respond and reinforce', is under development.

Question agreed to.
