Clause 1 - Breach of non-molestation order to be a criminal offence
Domestic Violence, Crime and Victims Bill [Lords]
10:45 am
Ms Vera Baird (Redcar, Labour)
Was the noble Lady referring to ousting the civil route completely? Was she talking about the position of somebody being arrested and still having the civil route available, or about the position of a person attacked after an injunction has been obtained still having the ability to use the civil route by applying to the court the following morning for an arrest warrant? Is the hon. Gentleman clear about which she means?
