[As Introduced]
A
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.
