Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between David Lammy and Adam Dance

Tuesday 19th May 2026 Commons Chamber

[Mr Lammy]

I thank my hon. Friend for her campaign and work in this area. It is important that prisoners and those on probation are re-educated about codes of conduct, and I am happy for her to arrange a meeting with the Prisons Minister.

[Adam Dance (Yeovil) (LD)]

Will the Secretary of State outline what steps he is taking through the criminal justice system to support victims of violence against women, particularly those who report historical cases of sexual violence? Several of my young constituents have faced terrible communication, years of delay, and ultimately the Crown Prosecution Service not progressing with prosecution.
