Part of Women and Equality – in the House of Commons at 2:30 pm on 10 March 2009.
I am sorry, but I really am not going to accept that from the right hon. Lady: her party would cut funding to local government and to the Home Office, but we are being told that we are not spending enough. We have rolled out sexual assault referral centres and set up a special fund, and we are working with the umbrella organisations. Since we set up the special fund, not one single rape crisis centre has closed. If she is saying that more money should be put into this sector, she should say where it would come from because her party's policies would see it cut. Unless the Conservatives can put their money where their mouth is on this, I am not going to be listening.
