"Madam President, in Northern Ireland in 2014-2015, there were over 13 000 reported incidents of domestic violence. The Police Service of Northern Ireland responded to one domestic incident every 19 minutes. In this period, there were 2.5 times as many domestic abuse crimes as drug offences. These are unacceptable figures, and we must do everything in our power to tackle these awful abuses. In Northern Ireland, the 24-hour domestic and sexual violence helpline is managed by the Women’s Aid Federation. In 2014-15, it managed 27 000 calls and reported a rise in the percentage of male callers, and in this Chamber we should not forget that men are often the victims of these crimes as well. So, it is right that, both in this Parliament and in our national parliaments, we send a message. The Government is not just willing, but ambitious to tackle these abuses at the earliest stages. International agreements can be pursued, but local solutions are necessary."@en1
