In an official announcement, the A-G confirmed that the state government has commenced work on new laws to crack down on the offences.
“The state government will work tirelessly to end the scourge of domestic and family violence in our community,” she added.
“We have been working with victims and support organisations to ensure we have the best mechanisms in place to deter, detect and punish perpetrators of domestic and family violence.
“Creating these new offences and increasing the penalty for people who repeatedly breach intervention orders will help us protect South Australians from abusive partners.”
