Evidence to the Home Affairs Select Committee Inquiry – Tackling Violence Against Women and Girls: Funding

The Victims’ Commissioner has submitted written evidence to the Home Affairs Select Committee Inquiry about VAWG funding. The submission highlights the essential role of independent victim support services, raising concern that cuts to relevant government funding risk their sustainability. Baroness Newlove calls for more ambitious action, including funding decisions based on wider data sources, recognition of children and marginalised groups.
