I rise to provide further information to my answer given to Senator Peris on 27 August concerning the Family Violence Prevention Legal Services Program. This program, which now falls within Senator Scullion's department, will be funded for 2014-15 by the Abbott government to the tune of $22.56 million for the delivery of those services. Efficiencies of $3.657 million, which I mentioned in my answer, between the current year and 2016-17 will be achieved from that program.
