Sussan Ley is speaking first:
Today we are announcing a suite of new measures that build on the work that we have done in coalition in government. New bases amounting to $90 million for further initiatives for the prevention of family, domestic and sexual violence.
The scourge of family violence reaches into every corner of this country and into every cohort of Australian society. Every time we recommit with new funding such as we are today, we make the statement that enough is enough. Because when you know that women are calling helplines every four minutes and police are responding to callouts for domestic violence incidences every six minutes, you can see the scale of the problem.
