The price of protection: Costing the implementation of the Domestic Violence Act (no. 116 of 1998)

Resource Description: 
Between February and May 2005 we conducted 60 interviews with criminal justice system employees at nine courts and nine police stations distributed across the three provinces of Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal and Free State. Courts were selected on the basis of rankings
provided by the Department of Justice and Constitutional Development and represent a mix of well-functioning, average, and under-functioning courts, as well as urban or rural location. Police
stations closest to the designated courts were chosen for the study.
