Dear (insert MP/ AG, Minister, Senator’s name),

I am aware of the latest statistics of the Federal Court and Family Court of Australia (FCFCOA) that 80% of court matters involve allegations of family violence and 70% involve allegations of child abuse. I fully supportive the Government’s Family Law Exposure Draft to remove the presumption of equal shared parental responsibility, as it is concerning to promote shared decision making and care in a system with such high levels of violence and abuse. I support a family law system that resolutely prioritises safety in decision making and the best interests of children.

I support the additional reforms outlined in Full Stop Australia’s Summary Position Paper.

(Additional comments I would like to make)

Your faithfully,
