Funding Amid Crisis in Domestic Violence | Australia News

Queensland’s domestic violence minister just dropped a $3.3 million funding boost for services — but it comes amid rising alarm as four women have been allegedly killed in domestic violence incidents in the state over the past two months. The move follows backlash after the government slashed $40 million from the sector last year, and despite promises to act swiftly on 300+ recommendations from the Women’s Safety and Justice Taskforce, the minister refuses to give specifics or timelines — calling the issue “complex” and insisting they’re working “calmly and methodically.” Critics say this is dangerously slow when lives are at stake — especially as national figures show 45 women killed this year alone, up from 79 last year.
