We will carefully consider recommendations from the Joint Scrutiny Committee about reviewing the scope of the DDVC and look forward to seeing report from the Joint Committee on the draft Bill. We will also want to consider the evidence – both written and oral – submitted to the Joint Committee on the Draft Domestic Abuse Bill and any recommendations made by that Committee. We are not complacent about our responses to domestic abuse, and strive to see what more can be done.</p> answering member constituency Louth and Horncastle answering member printed Victoria Atkins question first answered 14/06/2019 10:56:13 answering member 4399 label Biography information for Victoria Atkins
