What additional needs assessment is required?
Firstly, there will continue to be an underreporting of domestic abuse.
The data that is currently available from different sources has issues relating to
- Collection periods
- Data quality and quantity
- Interpretation of data
- Recording of demographics
To effectively understand the need of domestic abuse within Hartlepool, an agreed set of data standards across all services would need to be developed.
Review the need, demand and effectiveness of –
- Operation Encompass
- CAPVA
- Domestic Violence Disclosure Scheme (Clare’s Law)
- Perpetrator interventions
Response to consultation is low, therefore further consideration should be given for how to incorporate the victims voice to inform the commissioning and delivery of services.
