Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Danny Chambers and Catherine McKinnell

Tuesday 15th September 2026 Commons Chamber

[Catherine McKinnell]

Yes, I would be happy to meet my hon. Friend.

[Dr Danny Chambers (Winchester) (LD)]

There has long been a proven link between people deliberately harming animals and then committing domestic abuse. The Links Group has researched and highlighted that link for 25 years and is having a special conference later this year to mark this. Will the Minister agree to meet me and the Links Group so that we can draw on its 25 years of expertise to help prevent avoidable harm to women, children and even animals?
