In late 2023, the government committed to holding a royal commission inquiring into domestic, family and sexual violence in South Australia.
The Royal Commission into Domestic, Family and Sexual Violence commenced 1 July 2024.
Natasha Stott Despoja AO has been appointed as the Royal Commissioner and will focus on:
- prevention
- early intervention
- South Australia’s response
- recovery and healing
- how these efforts can be better integrated and coordinated.
Share With Us online tool
The Royal Commission has launched a survey to better understand the domestic, family and sexual violence systems in South Australia, and the gaps that exist.
The Share With Us online tool is now open for South Australians to answer a series of questions, write a response or upload an audio message in a safe, secure and anonymous way.
The survey will be open until 5pm, Tuesday 10 December 2024.
The information provided in the survey will be used to guide the Commission's inquiry and its recommendations.
