"Most experts say better resourcing and education would be far more effective and would not require another task force, more than six years after the state’s Not Now, Not Ever report, which was then supposed to turn back a tide of serious domestic abuse.
Queensland has processes – which are well-regarded by support services and researchers – that refer high-risk cases to specialist domestic violence teams.
The problem, Lynch says, is that a severe lack of resourcing limits the number of cases that can be referred. She says those high-risk teams tend to take on only cases where the threat of violence is overt."
