"Public Health Minister Melanie Johnson announced plans to help identify victims of domestic abuse earlier. 30% of domestic violence either starts or will intensify during pregnancy. An advisory group will be set up to suggest possible ways to include routine enquiries during ante-natal appointments to establish whether they are at risk of domestic violence. The aim will be to ensure pregnant women feel comfortable discussing domestic violence and to enable them to get appropriate help and support. "
