The Scottish Government's radical new Domestic Abuse Bill includes a proposed new statutory offence to recognise non-physical abuse. Proponents argue that it will help prosecutors and the police to hold abusers to account. Critics of the Bill worry about the scope and implications. Join us for this informative and lively evening. Listen to the information and arguments and then have your chance to put your questions and points forward.
