Call for safety order breaches to become a criminal offence
Women's Refuge is calling for breaches of Police Safety Orders to become a criminal offence.
New police data show the number of orders issued over the past five years has almost doubled.
Police Safety Orders (PSO) provide immediate, short-term protection for people at risk of domestic violence, including children.
Family Court delays at tipping point, lawyers say
Long delays in the Family Court are now evident at every court in the country and the government can no longer ignore the problem, lawyers say.
The back log of defended cases more than two years old is at its highest level since 2011, and the principal Family Court judge Laurence Ryan recently admitted judges were failing to meet any of their timeframes.

A budgeting service that has missed out on government funding says it lost the contract because it deals with the working poor rather than beneficiaries.
The Christchurch Budget Service is one of 60 budgeting providers who failed to secure contracts yesterday.
The new contracts are part of a major overhaul of the budgeting sector, with the government shifting the focus from teaching people how to budget to what it calls "financial capability".
