scotland considering its own law of homicide

We want you to write to your political representatives and ask for change in Scotland. With law change at Westminster to apply in England and Wales in 2021, and this year in Northern Ireland, Scotland needs to catch up with the rest of the UK. Last year the Scottish Law Commission consulted on a change to the law on homicide, including specific law on rough sex defences.

Scotland

In Scotland the Scottish Parliament has powers to make law and policy on this - so please email your Members of the Scottish Parliament and ask them to join our push for change. You can also ask your Westminster MP to support this.
