Mr. Barry Jones

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales how many refuges for women escaping domestic violence have been registered in Wales; and if he will make a statement. [33322]

There is no statutory requirement for the registration of refuges for women escaping domestic violence, and information on the number of refuges is not held centrally.
