The Law Commission has launched a Call for Evidence as part of its review of homicide law. The review covers the structure of murder and manslaughter, the partial defences of loss of control and diminished responsibility, duress, self-defence, killings in the context of domestic abuse, and sentencing for murder.

CWJ CEO Harriet Wistrich will be part of a panel discussion of these important issues.

Panel members:

• Andrea Preziozi (Law Commission)

• Harriet Wistrich (Centre for Women’s Justice)

• Dr Alex Benn (University of Oxford)

• Chairs: Professor Peter Hungerford Welch and Dr Cassandra Wiener (City Law School)

This is an in-person event. It will take place in TG14 in the City Law School, London.
