Very briefly, it could be implemented through a public policy that the minister would promulgate and that would indicate, in the case of an abused woman who is in a marriage, that before officials take any enforcement action, they be required to interview the woman and determine whether or not there are of allegations of abuse. If they believe that there are reasonable grounds—which is a very low threshold—that there was abuse, they be directed to process her application for permanent residence on that basis. That sounds to me like what they're doing in New Zealand. I've just summarized it.
