Having viewed the first hearing of the Home Affairs Select Committee (link) on Domestic Violence, it is clear that the submissions made by groups about male victims has at least been recognised. Progress for male victims at last.
(02:00) - ACPO admit that male under-reporting is a problem;
(28:00) - CPS asked about the male victims in DV courts. The conclusion was that 11% of victims are men.
The above means there is clear under-reporting because men make up 40% of victims. The authorities need to do more to help men come forward.
