A possible spring election forced an Ontario legislative committee to cut short what was supposed to be an exhaustive study of intimate partner violence.

The justice policy subcommittee, co-led by a Progressive Conservative and a New Democrat , completed Phase 1 of its work after listening to nearly 90 subject-matter witnesses over the summer .

The committee had grand plans that included travelling across the province to hear from survivors, with a key trip to Renfrew County in eastern Ontario to meet with those involved in a seminal coroner’s inquest.

The committee’s Phase 2 a fact-finding mission to understand the responsibilities of numerous ministries that touch on intimate partner violence was to start in September .

Committee room space was impossible to find until late November .

The committee's long-term goal is to come up with recommendations that will likely include a sustained funding model for a whole host of preventive measures.
