Domestic Abuse
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what discussions she has had with Cabinet colleagues on the adequacy of funding for domestic abuse services.
Answered by Jess Phillips
The Freedom from Violence and Abuse: a cross-government strategy committed to invest more than £1 billion over the next three years to support victims, including:
- £550 million for victims’ services from the Ministry of Justice;
- £499 million for safe accommodation from the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government.
This sits alongside wider investments, across government, to support victims.
