Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what steps she is taking to reduce the incidence of domestic violence.
This Government has introduced a new offence of coercive and controlling behaviour, rolled out new tools like domestic violence protection orders and committed over £100m to support victims.
We are firmly committed to doing everything we can to tackle domestic abuse which is why we have also announced that we will bring forward a landmark Domestic Violence and Abuse Bill to protect and support victims and bring perpetrators to justice.
