A report highlighting the good progress the Welsh Government is making in achieving its aim of ending violence against women, domestic abuse and sexual violence has been published 

The annual report on our “Right to be Safe Strategy” shows that 81 of the 89 actions have already been completed and how work to deliver the remaining eight is well underway.

Local Government and Government Business Minister, Lesley Griffiths AM said:

“It is good to see the excellent progress we have made in tackling all forms of domestic abuse and violence against women, including sexual violence since launching the strategy in 2010. 

“The landscape has changed significantly since 2010 and I am grateful to everyone who contributed to the progress we have made in addressing this terrible crime over the last four years.

“I will be bringing forward legislation in June and am sure this will allow us to take a huge step forward in seeking to end all violence against women, domestic abuse and sexual violence in Wales.”
