A group of activists in China are lobbying the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress - China's top legislative body - on its proposal to adopt a law for the prevention of domestic violence in China. The group is eager to know whether there has been similar laws or bills adopted in other countries that they can use as examples in their campaign. Would appreciate it if members of this email list could provide relevant information in various countries.
