The road that has brought me here today has been a fascinating one - one I have found incredibly rewarding. I had been Sex Discrimination Commissioner for three and a half years before I was asked to formally conduct a Review into the Treatment of Women at the Australian Defence Force Academy (ADFA) and in the Australian Defence Force (ADF).
Thank you for inviting me to be part of the Talking Heads Series. It is a great pleasure to be here.

Before I begin today I would like to thank Michael West for his generous welcome to country this morning and also pay my deepest respects to the traditional owners of this land - the Gadigal people of the Eora nation and the elders, both past and present.
It heartens me today to be able to welcome the release of the National Council’s Plan to Reduce Violence Against Women and their Children. This is the first time we have had a national plan in such a comprehensive form. The challenge now is to ensure that this plan is properly resourced so that all women and their children can live a life free from violence.
I want to start by acknowledging that we are gathered on the traditional land of the Gadigal people of the Eora nation and pay my respect to their elders past and present.
