Why wasn't electronic monitoring used in a family violence case despite law changes?

Government defends electronic monitoring policy after a family violence case raises concerns.

I am informed that in this circumstance, electronic monitoring was not mandatory because the accused was not subject to a family violence restraining order (FVRO) before the alleged offence took place.
