The Government should change the law so that Non-Molestation Orders must be automatically extended where an abuser has breached the order and been convicted. Victims should not be forced to relive trauma through further statements and court hearings to prove an already established danger.

Victims seeking to extend a Non-Molestation Order can be forced to relive trauma, submit new statements, and attend hearings, even when an abuser has already breached the order and been convicted. This causes unnecessary stress on the victim and added pressure on the courts. Where a breach has led to conviction and for offences such as stalking and/or harassment or violence, Non-Molestation Orders should be automatically extended without victims having to repeatedly prove the danger they face.
