Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Rachael Maskell (Labour and Co-operative Party), on Tuesday, 23 April 2024, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 20 members in total.


Drug and alcohol treatment services for women

That this House acknowledges that women’s substance use often results from trauma and abuse; notes that women’s access to trauma-informed, safe spaces has been limited, as cuts and contract competition have driven service provision to concentrate on its majority male user-base; welcomes the Centre for Justice Innovation’s guide to commissioning drug and alcohol treatment services for women, in helping to ensure services are responsive to women’s experiences; and urges the Government to support and promote the development of a range of bespoke, responsive and sustainable resources enabling more women to access drug and alcohol treatment support.
