Скачать или смотреть Virginia Crosbie MP - Domestic Abuse Bill Third Reading

🙏🏼 I am proud that today the Domestic Abuse Bill went through its Report Stage and Third Reading in the House of Commons. This ground-breaking Bill has strengthened the protections available to victims and significantly improved the legal action that can be taken against perpetrators, as well as future-proofing the legislation to take account all types of domestic abuse.

This landmark legislation:

🚫 Introduces new Domestic Abuse Protection Notices and Domestic Abuse Protection Orders placing restrictions on offenders
📃 Provides a statutory definition of domestic abuse covering many different forms of abuse including emotional, coercive and economic abuse
👩🏻‍🦳 Establishes in law the role of the Domestic Abuse Commissioner, helping to drive forward the response to domestic abuse
🏡 Gives victims priority for accommodation to ensure that no one is made homeless as a result of domestic abuse
⚖️ Overhauls family courts to provide additional protection for victims
🔴 Bans the so-called “rough sex” defence
