Notes:	A study identifying and analysing court cases involving exclusion orders in two New South Wales local jurisdictions was conducted in 2002 as part of the NSW Strategy to Reduce Violence Against Women. The study, involving Waverley and Sutherland local courts and the Women’s Domestic Violence Court Assistance Schemes, analysed thirty-two cases over a six-month period resulting in the recommendation that the safety needs of women and children be given priority over the accommodation needs of the defendant. As well, the study arrived at recommendations relating to choices for women, making exclusion orders visible, accommodation options for defendants, the interests of children, role of police prosecutors and the need for further research and development work. A final report, ‘Violence Excluded’, will be released.
