Proceeding contribution from Tom Brake (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Friday, 21 October 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Domestic Violence, Crime and Victims (Amendment) Bill.


Domestic Violence, Crime and Victims (Amendment) Bill

I too congratulate the hon. Member for Mole Valley (Sir Paul Beresford) on pursuing this cause. I am happy to support the Bill. The definition of domestic violence is relevant not only to this Bill but to the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Bill—I hope this change will go through, just as I hope we may at some point see some changes in the definition of domestic violence that is used in that Bill. I am pleased to support the Bill this morning.
