End violence against women and children


13 June 2009


NEWCASTLE — Fifty people marched on the Newcastle legal district on June 10 to protest changes to the Family Court system initiated by former PM John Howard.

The marchers presented letters to representatives of the police, and the federal and state courts to protest the inability of the system to protect women and children from domestic violence.
