Question to the Home Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what plans they have to ensure that all migrants who have been victims of domestic violence have access to the Destitute Domestic Violence Concession and other support.

In response to the recommendations from the Joint Committee on the Draft Domestic Abuse Bill, the Government committed to review the scope and duration of the Destitute Domestic Violence Concession.

We have carefully considered the Committee’s recommendations and the evidence provided by stakeholders on the issue. The evidence gathering stage of the review into support levels for migrant victims of domestic abuse has now completed and its findings are being considered.
