  • Title: [Adapting the law to offer better protection to female victims of violence].
    Author: Durand É.
    Journal: Rev Infirm; 2014 Nov; (205):19-20. PubMed ID: 25532260.
    Abstract:
    As society has become more aware of the seriousness and the extent of domestic violence, the law has been adapted in order to offer female victims better protection. These legislative changes are recent and still meet with some resistance. The act of the 9th of July 2010 modified penal and civil laws to take better account of the specificities of the mechanisms of domestic abuse and create appropriate tools. The law about real equality between women and men, approved by the National Assembly on the 23rd of July 2014, is in line with this same objective.
