Abstract
Under s.54-56 of the Coroners and Justice Act 2009, the defence of provocation is abolished and in its place comes a new partial defence involving loss of control. This new defence is expanded to cover loss of control arising from both anger or outrage (the old provocation ground) and fear. It is the product of work undertaken by the Law Commission in 2004 and 2006, culminating in a Government consultation paper published in 2008.
