My question is to the Minister for Finance and Minister for Women, Senator Gallagher, representing the minister for Social Services. Minister, in a very welcome move, your government released a month ago the first ever standalone plan to end violence against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women and children, backed by $218.3 million in new funding over four years. How much of that funding will be invested in setting up ACCOs to deliver community led specialist support services that help Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women and families who are experiencing family, domestic and sexual violence in the ACT?
