There are a range of difficulties in providing the figures requested. Allocation or budget for domestic violence Government and non-Government funded programs are provided each year. However expenditure on domestic violence programs provided by the non government sector can be spent across financial years. In addition, expenditure on domestic violence is recorded at a service level and not separately identified at a cost centre or budgetary level.
