Tackling domestic abuse

The latest phase of a campaign to tackle domestic abuse and violence against women was launched today. The TV adverts, entitled 'I Soar', will begin on Boxing Day and highlight the help that is available to those experiencing domestic abuse.

It coincides with the unveiling of a new ACPOS and Crown Office joint protocol outlining the procedures that should be followed by Scottish
police forces and prosecution staff when dealing with cases involving domestic abuse.

The Protocol aims to increase confidence in the
criminal justice system and inform and guide victims through the process.
