| dc.description.notes | Special issue title 'Out of the fire: domestic violence and homelessness'<br/ >Also published as DVIRC Newsletter Autumn Edition, February 2001<br/ >Argues that Australia’s immigration policies are becoming increasingly restrictive and categorical and that government responses to illegal and/or unwanted migrants have particularly disadvantaged women and children – when fleeing violence in the home the sub-class of visa a woman is holding will determine what systems are available to support her and her children. Suggests that although Australia’s record on re-settling legally recognised refugees and providing them with support is quite good, there is strong reluctance amongst government departments, to accept any additional responsibilities. Provisions of the Migration Act 1958 may make it easier for victims to obtain residency without their spouse’s sponsorship, but accommodation for women awaiting visas is largely inadequate. Contends that by implementing policies which place refugees and illegal migrants under additional and unnecessary pressure, the State not only increases the risk of family violence, it commits yet another act of violence against them. Advocates for the return of more humane immigration policies. | en |
