Domestic abuse victims facing debt will no longer have to pay hundreds of pounds to have their details removed from public records to stay safe from their abusers.
The Minstry of Justice has announced it is scrapping the £318 “Person at Risk of Violence” Order (Parv) fee to end the financial barrier for survivors to protect themselves from being tracked down.
Currently when someone seeks formal help for their debts, such as through a debt relief order, their name and address is required by law to be published on the Insolvency Register.
