The protection order registry keeps a record of all protection orders issued by BC courts. This means that when you call the police about the abuser, the police can confirm that you have an order, what it says, and if it still applies. They can then enforce the protection order right away. Make sure your protection order is registered. You can call VictimLink BC at 1.800.563.0808(no charge, 24 hours a day) to make sure your protection order is registered and that the information on is correct. If your contact details change, call to update the protection order. | The protection order registry keeps a record of all protection orders issued by BC courts.
