Constituency questions

Narre Warren South electorate


Narre Warren South electorate

Mr MAAS (Narre Warren South) (12:52): (6329) My constituency question is for the Minister for Prevention of Family Violence regarding the Free from Violence local government grant program. Minister, how does this program support and benefit my electorate of Narre Warren South? I recently had the pleasure of attending the minister’s announcement of the successful applicants under the 2022–25 program at Bunjil Place in Narre Warren, including help for the City of Casey, and that was to implement the local government guide for preventing family violence and all forms of violence against women. This program will provide over $3.5 million to 15 councils, all of whom are well placed to influence social change, with reach into their communities through their services and as large local employers as well. I would really appreciate further information that the minister can provide on this program and how it will support my constituents in Narre Warren South.
