近日,记者从“反家庭暴力媒体对话会”了解到,今年,国务院法制办在就反家暴法立法工作征求各方意见,近期反家暴法草案将面向社会公开征求意见。
请看新华网的报道:
The Chinese government is consulting the public on a draft of a national Law on Family Violence, the first law of its kind in the country.
中国政府正就全国首个反家庭暴力法草案向公众征求意见。
即将出台的Law on Family Violence(反家暴法)是首个针对domestic violence(家暴)的法律。这部法律也适用于foster homes(寄养家庭),但不适用于those who are cohabiting(同居人群)。
家暴受害者可申请对施暴者的restraining orders(人身限制令),施暴者将收到written reprimands(告诫书),情节严重者将面临刑法处罚。
