Law Commisions Homicide Law Review Project

The Law Commission's Homicide Offences Consultation is a comprehensive review of homicide law in England and Wales. It is examining whether current murder and manslaughter laws accurately reflect modern understandings of domestic abuse, coercive control and abuse-related suicides, and whether new offences or legal reforms are needed to better deliver justice for victims and their families. The review includes a dedicated chapter on victims of domestic abuse who die by suicide and is seeking evidence on how the law can better recognise and respond to these deaths, with the experiences of families represented by Lost Voices UK now forming part of that evidence base and helping to drive proposals aimed at closing critical legal gaps, improving accountability for perpetrators, and ensuring the devastating consequences of coercive and controlling behaviour are properly recognised within the criminal justice system.
