New Home Affairs Minister has opportunities for compassion

New Home Affairs Minister has opportunities for compassion   Last week I welcomed the appointment of Karen Andrews to the home affairs portfolio as part of the Morrison government’s ministerial reshuffle.

I stand to support the Minister in the early days of her new role to make compassionate and sensible decisions, to find a different path for the resolution of the challenges she faces.

On Thursday, Parliament’s standing committee on social policy and legal affairs published a 471-page review of the plan that concluded it had not cut violence within relationships and against children.
