Report on the interim evaluation of the domestic and family violence court in Southport

This interim evaluation of the trial specialist court is one part of a broader Department of Justice and Attorney-General (DJAG) and Queensland-wide response to the report of the Special Taskforce. It is intended to test the specialist court trial model, to report on the early progress of the trial and to identify any issues for consideration for the remainder of the trial. Additionally, it will contribute to informing the development and design of a specialist approach to DFV proceedings across the State in line with the recommendations of the Special Taskforce.
