answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/06/2015 answer text <p>The National Probation Service has the statutory responsibility, under the Domestic Violence Crime and Victims Act 2004 and the Code of Practice for Victims of Crime, for the Victim Contact Scheme. The Scheme provides victims of sexual and violent offences, where the offender receives a prison sentence of 12 months or more, with the right, should they so choose, to be informed of key stages in an offender’s sentence, such as if the offender is transferred to open conditions or released. Victims have the statutory right to make representations about the licence conditions to which the offender will be subject on release. Where an offender is serving an indeterminate sentence, such that the offender may be released only on the direction of the independent Parole Board, victims may submit a Victim Personal Statement to the Parole Board, setting out the impact which the offence had and continues to have on them.</p><p> </p><p>Victims are asked for feedback through a satisfaction survey that takes place after the first face-to-face contact with a Probation Victim Liaison Officer. The latest figures can be found at <a title="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/prison-and-probation-trusts-performance-statistics-201314" href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/prison-and-probation-trusts-performance-statistics-201314" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/prison-and-probation-trusts-performance-statistics-201314</a>.</p><p> </p><p>Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Probation inspected the standard of victim contact work, and its report, published in November 2013, found that, overall, victims were positive about the service they had received and were generally satisfied with the Victim Contact Scheme..
