I am currently finalising legislative proposals for a reformed and consolidated Domestic Violence Bill. I plan to bring these proposals to Government for approval shortly. I will also seek Government approval at that time to forward the General Scheme of the reformed and consolidated Domestic Violence Bill to the Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality for pre-legislative scrutiny.
