"[The inquiry] is probably the most optimistic I've felt in addressing domestic violence homicide and domestic violence in our state. I think it's special it’s on Preethi's birthday,"Ms Reddy said about Tuesday's announcement.
"[Preethie] was the kind of person who always wanted to make things better - that was always the sentiment that everyone around her felt and knew.
"For us to really get a grip and change the crisis that is gendered violence,it will take that holistic long-term approach,but right now there are women dying,women and children at imminent risk. There is no other way to stop that but to legislate."
Ms Reddy has also been working with NSW Labor MP Anna Watson to design a private member’s bill,named"Preethi’s law". The bill was presented to Parliament in September.
