The charity fears that without a statutory obligation, budgets for community-based support could be diverted to fund services such as refuges.

The NSPCC wants funding for community-based services - such as those that provide counselling to help child victims of domestic abuse to recover - also enshrined into law. In one call to the charity, a member of the public said they heard a couple shouting at one another for several hours a day, often while their children were crying in the background.

"To stop the pandemic having a lasting impact on children who suffer in this way it is vital they have access to support in the community to recover and move forward with their lives as not all victims can go to a refuge for support."
