Question to the Home Office:
What steps he is taking to tackle domestic abuse.
Answered by Victoria Atkins - Secretary of State for Health and Social Care
This Government is committed to transforming the response to domestic abuse. We have provided £100 million to support victims and organisations working to combat domestic abuse and violence against women and girls.
Our consultation on domestic abuse closed on 31 May, with over 3200 responses. We will be publishing a response to the consultation and a draft Domestic Abuse Bill later this session.
