The Solicitor-General
Yes. It will be one of the many factors that have done so, and I hope that we will see them being better used and with greater efficiency in future.
Mr David Burrowes (Enfield, Southgate) (Con)
The Solicitor-General will be aware that high profile cases often attract resource and, in particular, early involvement of the prosecution. Can he ensure that victims of rape get similar attention and profile?
The Solicitor-General
Yes, I can. The specialist rape prosecuting teams and the specially trained police officers, as well as witness care units run by the CPS, are now working well together to ensure that rape victims receive the proper treatment they need.
