I thank Senator Sheldon for his supplementary question. On 17 October 2022 that very fine minister, Minister Rishworth, launched the National Plan to End Violence against Women and Children 2022-32 along with my colleague in the Senate, the Minister for Women, the very fine Senator Gallagher, and state and territory ministers for women's safety. In the plan, the government has set an ambitious goal to end violence against women and children in one generation. To support the plan, the Albanese government has committed $1.7 billion for women's safety initiatives. The plan includes example indicators for success that can track our progress in implementing this national plan. The national plan will also be supported by an outcomes framework that will increase our ability to track, monitor and report change over the life of the national plan.
