dc.description.notesIn support of ‘Tasmania Together : Our Community goal 2’, a current state initiative to make communities safer, this PADV-funded report seeks to inform policy development on domestic violence across the government and non-government sectors. It aims to provide a framework, strategic plan and costing for the development and implementation of a regional court support service in Tasmania for all victims of domestic violence. The study first identifies existing services in Tasmania and examines their shortcomings and, then, looks at areas of best practice relating to court support services and how they might be applied in the Tasmanian context. Starting from the standpoint of low reporting rates of domestic violence and research findings that a more responsive legal system and less traumatic judicial system could address this problem, the study puts forward five possible models for a court support service. The preferred model is explained in depth. Important criteria of the model are that it address the needs of both women and children with intellectual and mental health disabilities, people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds and child victims of sexual assault. An evaluation process for the court support system is proposed and a list of 34 recommendations to the Tasmanian government is presented.en
