My argument was, you know what, if you're a repeat offender or you were involved in domestic violence, what is driving you in that direction?
Was it drugs?
Was it alcohol?
Was it financial pressures?
Get them into some sort of management course to try and break the cycle.
But of course there was people, you know, the left-wingers who would want to argue, what are you doing with, they should just simply go to jail.
Well, that's not going to break the cycle.
So there was a lot of work done on the central coast, which at the time was groundbreaking, but it was only financed probably, I think, for a few years by government.
And this is part of the problem with government.
They will trial things and they'll give you some financial backing, but it's only there for a period of time.
whether that's 12 months, two years, generally it's around about that sort of timeframe.
And then the money's taken away.
And if you want to continue with like DART, for instance, if you wanted to continue with that, you'd have to find the finances from within policing or, you know, with docs at the time.
So it made things quite tight, of course, because you didn't have budgets for that sort of managing things.
But that was some terrific work done by the men and women.
The other side of this is how successful they were.
So at Wyong Court, where domestic violence matters would take up, you know, two, three days of the court sitting, within that 12, 18 months timeframe, they had finished all the domestic violence matters by morning tea.
So it was fantastic.
The work that was done back then by the men and women who were involved in, you know, from the policing side and with the side from Department of Community Services, they did some fabulous work.
Yeah.
