Appendix Three: List of relevant Australian and international information sharing schemes/legislation and evaluations

A summary of existing legislation governing information sharing in the context of family violence was identified by the RCFV in 2016 (see Table 7.4, State of Victoria 2016a: 183-184). As this is a rapidly evolving area, this Appendix replicates the RCFV’s table (see grey-shaded boxes), adding additional legislation that has been introduced since 2016, implements child information sharing schemes similar to the FVISS, or has been identified in other literature (e.g. see table summarising legislation in the DFV bench book, itself adapted from Taylor et al. 2015, p. 15), along with identification of additional relevant evaluations of existing schemes in Australian and relevant international jurisdictions. For a more comprehensive overview of the contexts in which the following Australian state and territory provisions operate (see Glanfield 2016).

Appendix Four: Semi-structured questions for Interviews and Focus Groups

ISEs Service Providers, Managers and Experts

1. Has the scheme been implemented effectively to date?

Consider: effectiveness of training, the Enquiry Line, guidelines, change management and sector grants, extent that legislative requirements have been embedded in practice guides and procedures of information sharing entities.

2. Has the scheme been implemented as intended to date?

Consider: have elements been delivered on time, to the necessary work forces and parts of work forces.

3. Has the implementation of the scheme had any adverse organisational impacts?

Consider: any adverse impacts on workforces in information sharing entities e.g. increased workload (additional time taken each time information is shared and/or greater volume of information sharing), changes in ways of working with clients.

4. What were the key barriers and enablers for implementation?

Consider: What are the key lessons to inform further roll out of the scheme, including:

Has the process of training staff in how to effectively share information under the scheme been manageable and what have been the costs of this?

Have existing systems (including IT) been sufficient to facilitate the retrieval, storing and recording of information under the scheme, or has it been necessary to invest in new/upgraded system and, if so, at what cost?

What level of upfront effort has been required to update policies, procedures and practices in order to effectively and appropriately share information under the scheme?

We found that participants often tended to cover question three and particularly question four in their answers to questions one and two. Where this was the case, and time permitted, the below additional question was posed.

5. If you could recommend changes in order to improve the implementation of the Scheme to the next phase what would you recommend? What would be your number one recommendation?

Women affected by family violence

THEME: Has the information sharing scheme led to improved outcomes for victim survivors and increased the extent to which perpetrators are in view?

Tell us about your experience accessing and engaging with services.

Were you aware of other services becoming involved with your situation? How were you made aware of this?

Tell us about your experience of additional services beyond your primary service becoming involved in your case.

How did you feel about the process of information about your situation being shared? Do you think this benefitted you or your situation?

THEME: Has the scheme had any adverse impacts?

Appendix Eight: Interim Report Recommendations

Recommendation 1

A training needs assessment and a training plan for Phase One ISEs should be developed by FSV with all relevant departments as soon as possible. The training needs assessment should include:

• the identity of organisations that will be involved and/or contracted to develop and/or deliver training;
• the identification of numbers to be trained from each category of ISE and whether they will be trained separately or as part of cross-sectoral training;
• training strategies, including strategies to effectively deliver cross-sectoral training and any ‘train the trainer’ activities;
• the number of workers to be trained before and after commencement of Phase One; and
• the timing of every aspect of the training including delivery, development and relevant communications with key stakeholders.

Recommendation 2

The training plan should:

• provide sufficient time for training organisations to develop and pilot training that addresses the needs of the range of workforces in Phase One;
• provide sufficient notice to training organisations of delivery requirements;
• where training organisations are required/expected to engage in ‘train the trainer’ activities or develop ‘train the trainer’ materials, provide sufficient notice to ensure such training is effectively developed;
• should inform all relevant organisations the training strategy in a clear, timely and consistent way so it is understood who should attend training, when this should happen and whether those who attend are expected to train others in their organisations;
• communicate the schedule for training to all relevant organisations in a timely way to allow organisations to schedule training into the rostering of staff without interrupting core services; and
• ensure sufficient training is available prior to the rollout of the FVISS to Phase One organisations allowing such organisations to meet their legal obligations under the FVISS.

Recommendation 3

Training evaluation forms should include the same evaluation questions and be used consistently across all training sessions; and

all contracted training organisations should be required to provide a training evaluation report as part of the training contract or arrangement and other trainers should be requested to provide such evaluations.

Recommendation 4

Training should be revised to emphasise:

• how the new legislative obligations intersected with other legislation;
• the meaning of the term ‘alleged perpetrator’;
• the distinction between the risk assessment phase and the protective phase; and
• guidance about seeking the views of the child and/or non-violent parent.

Recommendation 5

Cross-sectoral training in FVISS is practical and desirable. The training developed for Phase One ISEs should:

include a recognition that to be effective cross-sectoral training in FVISS requires training strategies that acknowledge the different understandings and needs of different workforce groups involved in joint training.

Recommendation 6

All key information (a complete and accurate online list of ISEs, contact details for the Enquiry Line and practice guidance) about FVISS needs to be available at the time training is delivered and clearly communicated to training attendees and all stakeholders.

Recommendation 7

The Ministerial Guidelines should be revised to clarify the distinction between the ‘alleged perpetrator’ and the ‘perpetrator’; and in order to avoid ‘version confusion’ the Ministerial Guidelines should be clearly dated.

Recommendation 8

The sector grants should be finalised and administered by FSV within a timeframe that allows organisations the opportunity to employ additional staff prior to the rollout to Phase One ISEs.

Has the scheme been implemented as intended to date?

A number of elements of the FVISS, and the FVISS itself, have been delayed. The impacts of delays to elements of the implementation of the FVISS include fewer workers trained than intended. Sector grants designed to support implementation were delayed so that key staff appointments to assist with implementation did not occur until after the scheme started.

Recommendation 9

All FSV plans in relation to implementation to Phase One should:

• include clear timelines for all material activities;
• be reconciled against completed activities;
• clearly note and/or explain where activities are not completed within the planned timeframe or date. The plan’s timings should also be amended and, where material, communicated directly to all stakeholders; and
• all implementation relevant documents should be clearly dated.

Has the implementation of the scheme had any adverse impacts?

The implementation of the FVISS has created time pressures for ISEs leading to unreasonable imposts on worker/organisational time and worker anxiety around the impacts and processes of the new scheme.

What were the key barriers and enablers for implementation?

The timing of the rollout of the FVISS and communication about the FVISS’ implementation were key barriers to implementation. Ineffective and delayed communication impacted ISEs’ ability to manage staff training and necessary internal implementation procedures.

Participants were widely of the view that the practice guidance provided prior to the commencement of the FVISS was inadequate, resulting in inefficiencies that added to upfront effort and acted as a barrier to the FVISS’ effective implementation.

There were concerns about data security which may create a barrier for information sharing.

Recommendation 10

Attention needs to be directed to the pace, timeframes and sequencing of implementation activities to ensure that Phase One organisations have the time needed to meet their legal obligations under the FVISS and to put it into practice in the most efficient and effective way. (See also Recommendation 9); and

Careful consideration should be given to delaying the rollout of the FVISS to Phase One organisations until the MARAM is (sufficiently) complete so that the training in FVISS and family violence risk assessment and risk management can be aligned.

Recommendation 11

A final detailed communications plan needs to be completed by FSV as soon as possible for the rollout to Phase One. The plan should cover communications on every aspect of implementation including the development and finalisation of key documents, practice guidance, training, the ISE online list and the FVISS’ rationale and aims. The communications plan should be monitored and reconciled against actions. The communication plan should include:

• key timings for communication;
• identification of those responsible for communication;
• key pathways to communication, whether via ISE organisations, peak bodies or relevant departments;
• the identification of key communication loops so that feedback expectations around key issues are met;
• the role of social media, including the FSV website, newsletter, and tweets; and
• the role of mainstream media.

Recommendation 12

Clear guidelines about each ISE organisation’s legal obligations under section 5A of the Family Violence Protection Act and practice guidance about how legal and policy settings are to be translated into every day practice must be provided for all relevant organisations. This should at a minimum include:

• frequently asked questions and answers that includes how to resolve disputes regarding the identity of the primary perpetrator;
• worker fact sheets;
• fact sheets for victim/survivors, perpetrators, adults, and young people;
• model conversations for victim/survivors and perpetrators with intellectual disability;
• easy English resources for victim/survivors and perpetrators;
• a ‘ready reckoner’ which sets out what kinds of information relevant organisations/ISEs hold and how to access that information;
• a summary of the relevant chapter of the Ministerial Guidelines, in the form of a flow chart or other appropriate easy-to-navigate guidance that assists in explaining the interaction of the FVISS with other relevant legislation, particularly privacy legislation;
• guidance on what is considered a reasonable time for responding to a request for family violence information and the process for following up when information is not received in a reasonable time.

Recommendation 13

FSV should consult with the Office of the Victorian Information Commissioner and the Health Complaints Commissioner to develop practice guidance in relation to the secure exchange and storage of family violence information. This consultation could consider:

• the appropriateness of developing a minimum standard in relation to the secure exchange and storage of family violence information, and
• guidance on whether, and in what circumstances, family violence information collected prior to the commencement of the FVISS should be shared.
