MoJ acknowledges lengthy waits for RASSO victims and implements specific support measures.
Conclusion
MoJ acknowledged that the long waits for RASSO victims is “not a particularly desirable situation” and outlined some measures in place to support these victims. These measures included: • investing £41 million in sexual violence and domestic violence advisors, and continuing to protect funding for victims (particularly for victims of violence against women and girls); • supporting the independent judiciary’s work on listing and prioritisation of cases over two years old; and • focusing on transparency with criminal justice delivery dashboards with information at a local level on matters including victim attrition.34 The remand population
