This week, I tried to get a constituent who is a victim of domestic violence a safe space and access to services to keep them safe in a refuge, and that was not possible due to the large number of people who desperately need help. Many community organisations that work tirelessly to help victims of domestic violence say that they are disheartened by the lack of agreement on a Budget and the impact that that is having on victims. Any words of confidence that you can give them today that funding will continue for them would be greatly welcomed.
