Jim Shannon

Democratic Unionist Party — Strangford

Speaking in the House of Commons on 12 September 2024

Debate

Violence against Women and Girls

Contribution

May I welcome the Solicitor General to her place? I wish her well in the role and hope that it goes according to plan. Can she further clarify that funding is available for each branch of the prosecution services to provide the protection and support that helps victims to speak out? Is there any discussion about whether increased funding for victim support could embolden victims and help to facilitate even more safe prosecutions?
