Victims of Sexual Violence: Court Delays

The following extract is from the Adjournment debate on Victims of Sexual Violence: Court Delays on 16 December 2024.

[Alex Davies-Jones]

My hon. Friend will be aware of the consultations run by the previous Government on the criminal injuries compensation scheme. I have been reviewing those consultations and we are looking to publish the Government’s response in the new year, but we are aware of the concerns from the sector, and from victims and survivors, about the scheme. We are looking at how much more we can do to support victims and survivors as a whole on these issues.
