The Government are committed to tackling domestic violence and has made significant progress, primarily through the introduction of the Domestic Violence, Crime and Victims Act 2004, which is now supported by a cross-Government national delivery plan.
These measures deliver justice for victims basedon better policing, better prosecution and the establishment of over 50 specialist domestic violence courts, which help ensure perpetrators are brought to justice. Through the national delivery plan we are also providing improved help and support for all victims.
