Queensland Domestic and Family Violence Death Review and Advisory Board

Domestic and Family Violence Protection (Combating Coercive Control) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2022

This bill implements the Women's Safety and Justice Taskforce's recommendations to combat coercive control in domestic and family violence situations. It modernises stalking laws to cover technology-facilitated abuse, requires courts to identify the person most in need of protection in disputed cases, and improves how evidence of domestic violence patterns is recognised in criminal proceedings.
