Ms Michelle Murphy:

That should be key. Certainly, there is the case for a national register and that your supports can follow you if you move to the place where you have the family support. They should not stop at the county boundary.

Again, in terms of hardship funds, direction certainly can be given to the county councils and local offices in terms of including domestic violence. It seems to me astounding that it is not one of the elements of one of the clauses in terms of people being entitled to funding from a hardship fund.
