520 _aLaw and Order Committee recommendations in response to this petition: The Law and Order Committee has considered Petition 2011/124 of Ann Hodgetts and 744 others, and recommends to the Government that the review of the Domestic Violence Act 1995 by the Ministry of Justice consider the following matters: The effectiveness and enforcement of protection orders; Better case management of protection orders, which could be achieved by setting “sunset clauses” or renewable expiry dates on protection orders, and by creating and monitoring a central register of protection orders; Better strategies for preventing repeated breaches of protection orders; Preventative and rehabilitative strategies to address the drivers of protection order breaches, such as mental health issues, or alcohol and drug dependency. The petition was presented to the House of Representatives on 29 July 2014 and was referred to the Law and Order Committee. We received and heard evidence from the Ministry of Justice and the New Zealand Police on 6 May 2015 and from the petitioner on 1 April 2015. This report was released on 28 August 2015. Record #4806
