Question:
To ask the First Minister and deputy First Minister whether all actions in the Ending Violence Against Women and Girls Delivery Plan 2024–2026 have been completed.

Answer:

The Ending Violence Against Women and Girls (EVAWG) Delivery Plan 2024–2026 has been operational since December 2024 and contains fourteen actions across the key themes of prevention, protection, justice and partnership.

While there has been significant progress and momentum across all strands of work, many actions are still ongoing and will continue into Phase 2 allowing us to sustain and build on progress to date. There is a clear and shared commitment across Departments and agencies to addressing violence against women and girls as a collective priority.

The second Delivery Plan launched on 21 April and will build on this collaboration and further strengthen delivery.
