answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/12/2023 answer text <p>The Ministry of Justice does not hold the data requested. Offences involving domestic abuse can take various forms and are prosecuted under the offence in law that best reflects their nature and circumstances, for example, assault or harassment. These offences can take the form of domestic abuse or non-domestic abuse and data collected from courts does not distinguish between the two.</p><p>This Government continues to take concerted action to pursue perpetrators of domestic abuse. We have:</p><ul><li>Introduced a new wider statutory definition of domestic abuse, recognising all forms of abuse beyond physical violence, such as emotional and economic abuse, in law for the first time.</li><li>Created new offences such as non-fatal strangulation or suffocation, and extended the coercive and controlling behaviour offence to include former partners.</li><li>Extended the time in which victims are able to report domestic abuse-related assaults, so that more can seek justice.</li></ul> answering member constituency Orpington answering member printed Gareth Bacon question first answered 15/12/2023 09:25:49 answering member 4798 label Biography information for Gareth Bacon
