Public Consultation on Domestic, Sexual and Gender Based Violence (DSGBV)

 Yesterday, Wednesday 16 February, Minister for Justice Helen McEntee briefed NGOs on the third national strategy on Domestic, Sexual and Gender Based Violence (DSGBV), as well as an overview of a review of refuge accommodation prepared by Tusla. 

 

At the NGO briefing session, Minister McEntee outlined priority areas for refuge provision, as well as long term structural reforms to improve supports for victims and tackle domestic, sexual and gender based violence. The new structures discussed yesterday include a new statutory agency on domestic, sexual and gender based violence.

 

Today, an associated public consultation has been launched. We encourage all members of the public to consider taking part in the public consultation, and would ask you to share this among your members and colleagues. Further details: https://www.justice.ie/en/JELR/Pages/DSGBV-Public-Consultation
