About this organization

The Disclosure to Protect Against Domestic Violence (Clare's Law) Act will allow people at risk of domestic violence to find out if their partner has a violent or abusive past, once the legislation comes into effect later this year. It will also allow police to proactively inform someone of their partners domestic violence history.

The act allows:

  • The right to ask: People at risk can find out if their partner has a history of domestic violence or other relevant acts, in defined circumstances.
  • The right to know: Police can take a proactive approach to violence prevention by disclosing relevant information to people at risk, without an application.
  • The right to privacy: People can trust that their personal information will be safeguarded and only relevant details will be disclosed.
