The Government is committed to consulting on a Victims’ Bill to deliver a step-change in the support victims receive and how it is coordinated.

The Deputy Prime Minister is developing the consultation as one of his top priorities and is carefully considering the evidence to determine where legislation could be used most effectively. He is looking forward to discussing this with stakeholders in the coming weeks.
