The Home Office has conducted an internal review into the support package provided to victims of terrorism.

The scope of the review covered how the government considers victims of terrorism, what gaps there are in the current support offer and whether communication of the support available is right.

The review recognises that memorialisation and recognition are an important factor in victims’ recovery and has considered how victims could be commemorated in the future.

We will seek to update on next steps in due course.
