Provide increased funding to resolve domestic violence cases quicker — 13 signatures. Status: open.
We call on the Government to provide increased funding for domestic violence cases to ensure they can be resolved quickly, to ease the psychological impact on victims.
We believe that lengthy court cases where domestic violence is involved risks re-traumatising victims and could hinder their healing process as they wait years for justice. Some people cannot move on and benefit from things such as therapy, as long as their case remains unresolved due to court delays. More funding is needed to ensure these cases can be dealt with sooner.
