New stalking protections announced

STALKING protection orders are to be introduced as part of a package of measures to tackle the crime, Equalities Minister Jess Phillips announced today.

Judges will be able to issue the orders on conviction, something that is not currently possible. 

They will stop imprisoned stalkers continuing to harass their victims.
