Domestic Violence In Relation To Criminal And Civil Law

EDM number 38 in 2000-01, proposed by Ann Keen on 06/12/2000.

That this House welcomes the greater attention being paid by the police to the problem of domestic violence following the representations in the 1980s to the Metropolitan Police by the late Jo Richardson MP, initially in the face of mockery; and calls upon the Home Secretary to establish a national coalition of relevant agencies to identify the extent of domestic violence, provide an updated assessment of the measures taken so far by each police force and develop amendments to the civil and criminal law, which will finally reflect the seriousness of domestic violence and its impact on the family.

This motion has been signed by a total of 134 MPs.
