Implementation progress update

The Australian Government, with the states and territories, co-fund the Australasian Institute of Judicial Administration (AIJA) to develop and maintain the National Domestic and Family Violence Bench Book (Bench Book).

The Bench Book is updated annually, to reflect the latest academic literature, legislation, legal processes and case law. For more information see AIJA Benchbook.

The grant agreement to provide the Commonwealth’s contribution to AIJA for the ongoing maintenance of the Bench Book was executed on 12 June 2024 and will end on 30 June 2027.
