Proceeding contribution from Mark Tami (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 19 March 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Protection of Freedoms Bill.


Protection of Freedoms Bill

That is an important point. We have seen how long it has taken the police to treat domestic violence as seriously as it should be treated. The Home Secretary's comments show that victims are sometimes told that it is nice to receive that sort of attention. There is also the issue of the police not treating stalking seriously; it is only in very serious cases, where death may result, that we address stalking as the important issue that it is.
