The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, pursuant to the Answer of 7 March 2025 to Question 34055 on Emergency Services: Domestic Abuse, when she expects the first phase of embedded external domestic abuse specialists in police force control rooms to be completed in (a) Northumbria, (b) Northamptonshire, (c) Bedfordshire, (d) Humberside and (e) West Midlands police forces.

Answered by Jess Phillips

Raneem's Law is the first time the Government is delivering a national, coordinated approach to embedding specialism into 999 control rooms. We intend to use learning from Phase One of Raneem's Law to inform plans for further national rollout across all 43 forces in England and Wales, as soon as possible. Exact timings for this will be announced in due course.
