Briefing NotesDomestic Violence

Claires Law The Domestic Violence Disclosure Scheme goes live


nationwide on 08 March 2014, giving members of the public a
right to ask Police where they have a concern that their
partner may pose a risk to them or where they are concerned
that the partner of a member of their family or a friend may
pose a risk to that individual.
If an application is made under the scheme, Police and partner
agencies will carry out checks and if they show that the
partner has a record of abusive offences, or there is other
information to indicate that there may be a risk from the
partner, the Police will consider sharing this information.
To make an application people need to go to a police station
themselves where police staff will make details of the enquiry.
They will then create a safe means of contacting you. They
will need you name, DOB and address.
At least 1,335 disclosures have been made so far, police
figures obtained by the Press Association show. (BBC 26th Jan
2015)

description
Cost of Tagging 'Graffiti' refers to any drawings, scribbles, messages or 'tags'
that are painted, written or carved on walls and other
surfaces.
Graffiti is vandalism and it's become a really expensive
problem. Removing graffiti costs the UK over 1 billion a year.
We and other agencies have to remove graffiti from walls,
street furniture, telephone boxes, bus shelters, monuments
and even gravestones.
Figures estimate that the cost of graffiti removal throughout
the country is over 1bn a year, with the London Underground
alone earmarking up to 10m per annum to replace glass
tagged with unattractive markings.
Is part of the Criminal Damage 1971 Act
As well as Anti-Social Behavior 2003
Becoming Legal There are free walls that mean graffiti will be legal on them
