PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(3 December 2024)

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how much funding her Department plans to provide to help prevent (a) domestic abuse and (b) sexist and misogynistic attitudes that underpin domestic violence in the next financial year.

Asked by:
Neil Duncan-Jordan (Labour)

This Government has committed to halving violence against women and girls, including domestic abuse, in a decade.

Addressing the attitudes and root causes of domestic abuse is fundamental to our approach. It is essential we have a comprehensive approach to prevention, from education to early intervention and targeting the most prolific and repeat offenders.

Following the spending review announcements in October, the Home Office is now deciding how the total funding settlement is allocated across the department to deliver the Government’s priorities. The Government has identified several priority areas for reform, which it will build on in Phase Two of the Spending Review. Phase Two will be mission-led, ensuring Departments work together to develop a shared strategy for delivering the Government’s priorities.
