Melanie Onn

Labour — Great Grimsby and Cleethorpes

Speaking in the House of Commons on 5 February 2026

Debate

Child Abduction and Custody Act 1985

Contribution

My constituent had a dreadful experience following her daughter’s kidnapping and assault. The CPS has admitted that the handling of the case was flawed, including through the failure to offer a victim personal statement and by too readily accepting a plea from the perpetrator, which meant that he got just a 12-month referral order. This Government are firmly on the side of victims, so how will they ensure that CPS practice reflects that?
