However, that target has not been met since 2016. Lockdown has provided the perfect conditions for women and girls to be abused. The government is set to launch a new strategy to tackle violence against women and girls to help those affected and bring the perpetrators of this crime to justice. The figure is around 35 times the number in April 2020, when it stood at 11,042. Weve also strengthened the law to protect victims through FGM protection orders, created a new offence of failing to protect a girl from FGM, and have provided a statutory guidance to professionals who may come into contact with children at risk of FGM, so they can spot the signs and know how to help.
That target has not not been met since the year after 2025.
