Justine, I might have missed it but if there’s no resolution through pilot and matter referred to PPP500, does Legal Aid continue to fund client under ERA means and merits test?

01:26:41
How do we get Dinh’s “hand-outs”?

01:27:30
I have saved them in a dropbox and will send all registrants the link to this tomorrow

01:29:35
Good question Sun-Jae and I probably did gloss over this. ERA funding under the pilot covers mediation only. Where the client has to commence court proceedings they apply for funding under the usual legal aid eligibility policy for family law property matters. This now accommodates circumstances of family and domestic violence and vulnerabilities in a way that mirrors the pilot subjective circumstances. The usual means test will also apply and this may be an issue for some clients although I don't think it's been an issue yet and there is a mechanism for discretion to be exercised.

Melody, your service seems like something that could be really helpful for some women who may have learning disabilities or have simply never had to manage money because that was simply their husband's job but maybe their husband has passed away - not necessarily a DV situation. Is there any way these kinds of women can access your service or a similar service through legal aid?

01:38:03
Melody - your presentation is very interesting and helpful. Please can you tell us how people can access the low income car insurance?

01:38:27
I am also wondering if we can refer clients to your financial counsellors who may not otherwise need the DVU wrap around service?
