INFO:
Jointly, LIBE (Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs) and FEMM (Women’s Rights and Gender Equality) Committees vote on EU legislation to fight violence against women and domestic violence. MEPs want a uniform criminal definition of rape based on the absence of consent, for cyber violence to be a crime under EU law (including non-consensual sharing of intimate material), and safer and gender-sensitive procedures for reporting incidents.
