N2  - This report details the consistent support for the inclusion of forced marriage as family violence and the recognition that this is a welcome opportunity to expand service supports for persons affected by forced marriage. However, our findings also call to attention the urgent need to review: (1) the suitability of current family violence support services in meeting the varied needs of the different groups of persons affected by forced marriage and, (2) the strong association of forced marriage with CALD communities reflected in current risk assessment processes. The findings in this report detail the importance of undertaking careful and considered research and review to ensure that the intention of recognising forced marriage as a statutory example of family violence is fully realised. In particular, that it results in women (and men) impacted by forced marriage accessing appropriate, tailored services that can support their safety. (From the Executive summary). Record #8153
