Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the remarks by Lord Bellamy on 16 April 2024 (HL Deb col 972), whether they intend to issue a public consultation on revisions to the Victims Code including to specify the need for interpreters and translators to be qualified professionals.

We will consult on a new Victims’ Code in due course in order to ensure that we get the information and support for victims right.
