Debate between Martyn Day and Kemi Badenoch

Wednesday 12th July 2023 Commons Chamber

[Kemi Badenoch]

The Government are providing police and crime commissioners with dedicated ringfenced funding for at least 900 independent sexual violence and domestic abuse advisers and will fund an additional 100, bringing the total to more than 1,000 by 2025.
