‘I Want to Tell my Story’: The Guardianship and Administration Confidentiality Law
The Commission is considering whether reforms are needed in Victoria to ensure that children continue to have the protection of a Family Violence Intervention Order when they turn 18 unless orders are varied, revoked or discharged. The Commission has published an issues paper to guide community discussion about potential reform. It includes questions to guide responses.
