Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, when his Department plans to respond to the Criminal Injury Compensation Scheme Review 2020.
I am grateful to all who took the time to contribute views to our consultation following a review of the Criminal Injuries Compensation Scheme. Our proposals aim to make claiming compensation simpler and more accessible for victims of violent crime.
We are carefully reviewing responses and will aim to publish the Government’s response in due course.
