Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what progress her Department has made on removing the fee GPs charge for providing a letter of evidence for domestic violence victims to access legal aid since 7 February 2017.

As I outlined in my previous answer of 6 March 2017 (65872 and 65873), we will be announcing details of the full extent of our proposals in relation to domestic violence evidence requirements for legal aid in private family law fairly shortly.
