Clause 1 - Breach of non-molestation order to be a criminal offence
Domestic Violence, Crime and Victims Bill [Lords]
11:15 am
Mrs Cheryl Gillan (Shadow Minister, Home, Constitutional & Legal Affairs; Chesham and Amersham, Conservative)
On the serving of the order, obviously we have moved on from people shutting the door in the face of the server, and other methods of serving orders can be used. There has been some discussion recently about whether e-mails and text messages would satisfy the requirements of serving an order. Has the Minister any further and better particulars on that?
