Sexual assault victims are enduring long, traumatic journeys to Adelaide for forensic examinations because of a lack of regional services, the South Australian Royal Commission into Domestic, Family and Sexual Violence has been told.
The issue had come up "every time" during the commission's visits to regional areas, Commissioner Natasha Stott Despoja told the inquiry's second day of public hearings on Thursday, and she had found the stories of victims "really concerning".
