My question is to the minister representing the Minister for Social Services, Minister Farrell. Every week in Australia women and children suffer at the hands of men. According to volunteer organisation Counting Dead Women, 66 women have been killed so far this year. We know this is a problem for men to fix. We know that 95 per cent of perpetrators are men. As a male minister of the Albanese government, what are you and all of your male cabinet colleagues personally doing to drive down the rates of violence and change cultural and behavioural attitudes amongst men?
