Domestic abuse experts to be embedded in 999 control rooms

The first wave of police forces will start embedding domestic abuse specialists in their 999 control rooms early next year to stop emergency services missing opportunities to save women’s lives.

The move is part of “Raneem’s Law”, named after Raneem Oudeh, to transform the way the police handle cases of violence against women and girls.

Home Secretary Yvette Cooper pledges that the government "has a mission to halve domestic abuse." Report by Covellm.
