violence problems. From those, $15m will fund 6 domestic violence 'High Risk Offender Teams', $4.1m for 24 new domestic violence liaison officers, $19.5m into mandated perpetrator behaviour change programs to provide treatment for offenders (to treat them just like those for drug or alcohol addictions). Another $20m would be spent for increasing the housing for those affected, $2.3m for police partnerships with other organisations and $1.3m over four years to increase the numbers of sexual assault nurse examiners in rural areas. A 2020 NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research study comparing domestic violence committed by all men and women in New South Wales to that committed by Aboriginal men and women found that Aboriginal women are eight times more likely to be perpetrators of domestic violence than women in general (nearly 800 per 100,000 compared with just over 100 per 100,000), and they were more than twice as violent as men in general (about 300 per 100,000). While domestic violence by Aboriginal men had decreased in 2019 compared to 2010, that perpetrated by women had increased (from around 600). Domestic Violence Disclosure Scheme In March 2015, New South Wales Premier Mike Baird announced a pilot of the Domestic Violence Disclosure Scheme (DVDS). DVDS is an adaptation of Clare's Law, which was seen as a success in the United Kingdom. Through the scheme, victims are given the option to seek out information about his/her partner regarding any history of domestic violence. In the future, the scheme could also be extended to friends and family members who may have concerns about the affected person's partner. A "right to ask" model was proposed, similar to that in the UK. The DVDS, an Australian first, was piloted from April 2016 in four NSW Police Force Areas: Oxley (Tamworth region); Shoalhaven (Nowra region); Sutherland (Menai/Engadine/Sutherland region); and St George (Kogarah/Hurstville region). It was announced in May 2018 that the trial would be extended to June 2019. Only a person of 16 years of age or older can make an application. Indifferent of the domestic partner's criminal history, the disclosure, it would be made within two weeks from the date of the application, in person by a police officer assisted by a social worker. Information disclosed include relevant convictions of family violence, other serious convictions such as sexual offences, child abuse offences or murder and the date of conviction (case by case).
