Debate

Crime and Policing Bill

Contribution

As I have said many times, this Government are committed to tackling violence against women and girls, which is why we are commencing the Protection from Sex-based Harassment in Public Act 2023 on 1 April. We are also funding an innovative police tactic called Project Vigilant, where specially trained police observe people in public to try to identify and disrupt those exhibiting predatory behaviours.
