Protecting Victims Act
A large bill amending many criminal laws, focused on child protection and gender-based violence. Changes include new or expanded criminal offenses like coercive control of intimate partners, femicide, non-consensual distribution of intimate images, and child sex trafficking. It also amends procedures for sexual offense trials and victims rights. In debate, the opposition accused the government of rushing the bill and limiting discussion, while the government insisted the changes are urgently needed to save lives and prevent violence.
