| dc.description.notes | At head of title: Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet, Office of the Status of Women, National Committee on Violence Against Women.<br/ >Drawing upon Carol Smart's conceptualisation of the law as an institutionalised and formalised site of power struggles, through which women’s social and political rights can be advanced, this paper examines both formal and informal research on the effectiveness of protection orders for women experiencing domestic violence in Australia. Focusing on issues of safety, long-term outcomes, women’s empowerment and the overall aim of achieving the eradication of violence against women, the report provides a background to, and evaluation and assessment of the development of protection orders in Australia. In Part One, major findings of research projects conducted in each State and Territory are reviewed and the specific impact of changes to the Family Law Act discussed. Attention is also directed to particular issues and challenges facing Indigenous women, women from non-English speaking backgrounds and the need for further research in these areas. A series of recommendations for reform is also provided in relation to data collection and research, legal services, legislation and the training of staff within the legal system. Part Two provides a detailed summary of legislation governing the granting of protection orders in each jurisdiction. It highlights some of the differences between States and Territories and the potential for difficulty with enforcement of protection orders across borders. | en |
