Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, whether it is her policy to retain the measures in the EU Directive on the rights of victims of crime in UK law after the UK leaves the EU.
The revised Code of Practice for Victims of Crime (the Code) which came into force on 16 November 2015 was used to complete the transposition of the EU Victims’ Directive 2012/29/EU into domestic law and there are currently no plans to amend the Code.
