About this episode
In 2022, the Albanese Government joined its state and territory counterparts to commit to ending violence against women and children in a generation.
But while Labor says they've made ending violence a key priority, with more than $4 billion for women's safety initiatives, where are things four years on?
And with a wraparound approach needed to counter the issue, is a national watchdog urgently needed to ensure recommendations are actually implemented?
Claudia Long joins Patricia Karvelas for this special edition of Politics Now.
