Questions are being asked about why the Federal Government has defunded the peak body representing Indigenous survivors of domestic violence.

The National Family Violence Prevention and Legal Services Forum represents 13 frontline organisations, but the Government won't be renewing its funding.

It means there will now be no national advocacy group giving a voice to Aboriginal domestic violence victims.

Family violence campaigners and the Opposition is accusing the Government and the Minister for Indigenous Australians of attempting to silence peak Aboriginal organisations.
