BILL
to
This bill aims to make the law tougher on murders and serious violent crimes where women are the victims. It would create a new category of crime that courts can punish more severely, and it's designed to recognise that violence against women is a particular problem that deserves stronger legal responses.
Presented by Nusrat Ghani.
