Question
To ask the Scottish Government how many individuals specialising in domestic abuse cases are currently employed in the justice system.
Answer
It is not possible to quantify the number and broad spectrum of specialism across the Justice sector in relation to domestic abuse cases. It is a matter for independent justice partners to provide essential training in domestic abuse matters to ensure and support operational requirements.
