| Notes: | Released as part of the Victorian Law Reform Commission’s review of the Crimes (Family Violence) Act 1987 (Vic), this consultation paper sets out the scope of the Commission’s inquiry, identifies key problems with the intervention order system as it currently operates and presents a series of alternatives to current practices for community comment. Chapters 1, 2 and 3 provide a background to the review and explain the concept of family violence and the legal and criminal justice systems response to this phenomenon. Chapters 4, 5, 6 and 7 discuss the Victorian Intervention Order system in detail, examining how it is used, who can make an application and major barriers to accessing it. Chapters 8 and 9 consider the conditions that might be included in an intervention order and what happens when an order is breached, while Chapters 10 and 11 canvass some of the ways in which the intervention order system might be improved. |
