Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what plans she has for funding the (a) Revenge Porn Helpline and (b) StopNCII.org website in the next five years.
Answered by Jess Phillips - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Home Office)
Violence against women and girls (VAWG), including so-called ‘revenge porn’ can have devastating consequences on victims. We have set out an unprecedented mission to halve VAWG in a decade, and we have committed to ban the creation of sexually explicit deepfakes, ensuring that those who create these images without consent face appropriate punishment.
Following the spending review announcements in October, the Home Office is now deciding how the total funding settlement is allocated across the organisation, to deliver the Government’s priorities.
