65 When DVO may be made on consent (1) On an application made under Division 2 for a court DVO, the Court may make a DVO under this Division if the parties to the DVO consent to it being made. The Court may vary or revoke a consent DVO under Part 2.6 on an application or on the Court's own initiative. (2) A court DVO may be made on consent even if the respondent did not admit or expressly denied: (a) an allegation made against the respondent; or (b) the grounds of the application. (3) To avoid doubt, a court DVO must not be made on consent unless the Court is satisfied of the grounds in section 18.
