The Netherlands
The barring order allows to evict the perpetrator for ten days if the perpetrators’ behavior constitutes a risk for the victim’s safety; if the risks continues it can be extended for a month. With the eviction an integrated treatment programme starts for victim, child/ren and perpetrator separately. Although a laudable development, problems are expect because the police, who is in charge of the implementation of this administrative law, tends to gravitate to higher criminal legal standards to establish risk. The question is whether the police forces are equipped to apply a law with primarily a preventive goal.
