Domestic and Family Violence Risk Assessment or Safety Plan
Detects completed domestic and family violence (DFV) risk assessments, safety plans and multi-agency risk meeting records for an identified person, across Australian frameworks: Qld Common Risk and Safety Framework (CRASF), QPS Domestic Violence Protective Assessment Framework (DV-PAF) and High Risk Teams; NSW Domestic Violence Safety Assessment Tool (DVSAT) and Safety Action Meetings; Vic MARAM; WA CRARMF; SA and NT Family Safety Framework meetings and Positive Action Plans; NT RAMF Common Risk Assessment Tool; and generic DFV risk assessments and safety plans.

- Confidence justification
- Medium: framework names appear heavily in guidance and training, and framework manuals contain example risk levels. Enforce tiers therefore need both a populated risk level and a populated party field; 85 adds a risk indicator. 85/75 are heuristic evidence tiers, not measured accuracy.

Known false positives
- Framework manuals, practice guides and training scenarios. Mitigation: Enforce tiers require a populated party field with a proper name; guidance and scenario text rarely provide one. Training scenarios with fictional names can still match.
- Non-DFV clinical or workplace risk assessments. Mitigation: Primary requires a DFV-specific framework, tool or qualifier; ambiguous acronyms are excluded.
