Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what steps she is taking to meet the recommendations set out in the UK report by the UN Special Rapporteur on Violence against Women.

The United Kingdom has some of the strongest protections in the world to safeguard women and girls. The Government is committed to further supporting women to rebuild their lives, to breaking cycles of abuse and bringing perpetrators to justice.

We will continue to update our Violence Against Women and Girls strategy, as we have done every year, and will consider the Special Rapporteur's findings.
