Alliance Welcomes Introduction Of New Stalking Legislation

The Alliance Party has welcomed the introduction of new stalking legislation in NI.

The party's Violence Against Women and Girls spokesperson Connie Egan MLA said that the new laws will make people safer.

North Down MLA Ms Egan, said: "This legislation goes a long way in protecting people and keeping them safe, by allowing the police and courts to intervene earlier to stop stalking behaviours escalating.

"My thanks go to everyone involved in getting the legislation to this stage, including Naomi Long, who championed this as Justice Minister, and especially to those victims who shared their often harrowing experiences to help inform and shape the final legislation.

"This law will make a real difference to people’s lives, protecting them against the fixated, obsessive, unwanted and repetitive behaviours which constitute stalking. Stalking is psychologically and physically damaging to victims. I hope this law will make it easier to tackle this insidious behaviour and better protect people affected.

"I would encourage anyone who is being subjected to stalking to report it to the police and to seek support from victims' organisations: don't suffer in silence, help is out there."
