Proceeding contribution from Philip Davies (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 10 April 2014. It occurred during Adjournment debate and Backbench debate on Domestic Violence (Police Response).
Domestic Violence (Police Response)
My hon. Friend’s list did not include West Yorkshire police, the force in my area; but I have spent a lot of time out with West Yorkshire police and have always found that they take domestic violence seriously as a crime. It is one of their top priorities. The report showed that for every 100 incidents of domestic violence that they went to, 88 arrests were made. That shows that they take the matter seriously. We should not think of forces as either failing or succeeding; there are many shades of grey in between.
