The Government has already provided £265,000 to support organisations that raise awareness of economic abuse, and build the understanding and capability of financial organisations to respond, and the consultation asked what more could be done to support victims of economic abuse. The consultation closed on 31 May. Over 3,200 responses to the consultation were received. The responses to the consultation are being considered and a draft Bill will be published later this session.</p> answering member constituency Louth and Horncastle answering member printed Victoria Atkins question first answered 10/07/2018 16:21:45 answering member 4399 label Biography information for Victoria Atkins
