Four survivors of rape have made detailed submissions to TDs calling for “Super Protection Orders” that would stop their abusers from approaching them following their release from prison.

Leona O’Callaghan, Paula Doyle, Shaneda Daly, and Sonya Stokes met the Joint Committee on Justice, Home Affairs, and Migration to seek amendments to the Victims of Sexual Violence Civil Protection Orders Bill 2025.
