Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, whether the spending commitments pledged in the Government's Victim's Strategy, published in September 2018, Cm. 9700 will come from existing budgets.
The Victims Strategy brings together, for the first time, funding which Government and agencies spend on supporting victims of crime, which is roughly £200 million a year. The strategy sets out existing commitments to increase funding for victims of approximately £37 million. We have also committed to ensuring that funding is better coordinated and goes to the right place at the right time.
