Noah Law Excerpts

Tuesday 5th November 2024 Commons Chamber

[Shabana Mahmood]

[Noah Law (St Austell and Newquay) (Lab)]

As my hon. Friend the Member for Sheffield Central (Abtisam Mohamed) pointed out, legal aid is currently restricted to those on the lowest incomes. I have received correspondence from a constituent who, despite being a domestic abuse survivor, cannot access legal aid because her income is above the threshold. Will the Minister consider widening legal aid eligibility to all victims of domestic violence?
