Recommendation 50

50 Deferred Paragraph: 123

Government proposals fail to adequately address safety concerns of migrant victims reporting crime.

Conclusion
All victims need to feel safe in coming forward to the police and be confident in reporting potential criminality. The Government’s alternative proposals do not go far enough to address the concerns of migrant victims and survivors who may be unsure of what will happen to them after prosecution, or if a prosecution does not proceed through no fault of theirs.
Government response summary AI-generated
The government describes its ongoing project launched in September 2022 to quantify and address challenges in digital forensics delivery and reform, but does not address the recommendation concerning migrant victims' safety in reporting.
