Our priority has to be early intervention and prevention, because we know that a future without domestic, family and sexual violence can only happen if we change behaviours and attitudes and if we make sure that people understand what acceptable behaviour is. We have announced $35.1 million to expand our national campaign, 'Stop it at the Start', which has been so tremendously successful to date.

Yesterday I was very pleased to announce the launch of a five-part series of children's audiobooks, which can be downloaded wherever you download your podcasts from, to encourage respectful behaviour amongst children. I'd like to thank Nova Entertainment for partnering with the government in this thing, which we called Project ARI. It's a series which has been written by children's author Nat Amoore, and it focuses on a young robot called ARI, who's sent to live with a family. He has to learn to have a human experience. It's a fantastic resource. It's great fun, and I'd encourage everybody here to download it and listen to it.
