Domestic abuse specialists embedded in 999 control rooms aim to ensure rapid police response to victims, critical for saving lives and ensuring safety.
'Failure to understand the seriousness of domestic abuse costs lives and far too many have already been lost,' stated Home Secretary Yvette Cooper.
About 100 domestic abuse-related offences were recorded by police every hour last year, underscoring the urgent need for innovative policing approaches.
The new measures are crucial as victims need assurance that police will respond to reports with seriousness and urgency, according to Cooper.
