Labour — Congleton

Speaking in the House of Commons on 9 January 2025

Debate

Violence against Women and Girls

Contribution

I understand that there may be some difficulties with the criminal law in relation to people being followed. In the event that they have been actively harassed and threatened, there is a potential crime in the threat, but there may be a gap in the criminal law for those who are simply followed, with that not being part of a continuing course of conduct. Will the Minister commit to looking into that, please?
