Background
We would like the UK Government to review the sentences for people who are involved in sexual violence related crimes, to better protect women.
Additional details
We would like the government to increase the sentence for people who commit sexual violence crimes as we do not believe they are long enough. This, in our view, can lead to women not report such crimes, as the sentences aren’t long enough.
