Baroness Chisholm of Owlpen (Non-Afl)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 19 January 2026

Debate

Domestic Violence Against Children

Contribution

My Lords, there is always, quite rightly, multi-agency involvement in these distressing cases, but there can be a problem when victims fall through the cracks and the joined-up approach fails. How can we be assured that this is being improved? This is difficult for the Minister to answer, but it is an important point to air because we see, over and over again, how there are problems with the joined-up approach with one agency talking to another. I wondered if the Minister might have some views on that.
