I thank the member for some notice of question. (1) Nine of the key actions have been achieved and one, (c), is currently underway. They are — (a) develop a memorandum of understanding for information sharing for the purpose of managing high-risk cases involving family and domestic violence; (b) consider existing risk assessment and referral processes with a view to standardising family and domestic violence risk assessment and risk management processes across the state; (c) develop standards of practice for working with adult victims, children and perpetrators of family and domestic violence; (d) design and implement case coordination and case management guidelines and procedures; (e) review delivery of regional coordination responses to family and domestic violence with a view to strengthening arrangements and making them more consistent across the state; (f) research models of operation for family and domestic violence fatality review committees to determine an appropriate model for WA—that is underway; (g) commence the design of data collection standards and processes; (h) commence the design of a longitudinal tracking process; (i) research workforce development strategies for specialist and generalist agencies; and (j) commence the design of a monitoring and evaluation framework. (2) None. (3) No. (4) A comprehensive mid-term progress report will be developed and released in mid-2011. This report will detail findings from the work currently being undertaken. A three-year state implementation plan to support the national plan will also be released in early 2011, and these two processes will replace subsequent annual action plans. (5) Since the development of both the state strategic plan and the annual action plan 2009–10, WA has been working with the commonwealth to develop the national plan to reduce violence against women and their children. This 12-year national plan will be supported by four, three-year rolling national action plans that will include present actions that WA is currently undertaking and plans to undertake within the next three years.
