<p>Rape is a devastating offence that can have a significant and profound impact on
victims, and the CPS is committed to bringing perpetrators of these horrific crimes
to justice. The CPS welcomes and accepts all recommendations made in HM Crown Prosecution
Service Inspectorate’s ‘Rape Inspection’ report, published in December 2019, and joint
work with the police is already underway to make improvements. This work covers a
range of areas, including case progression, digital capability and disclosure, expertise,
supporting victims, and stakeholder engagement.</p><p> </p><p>The ongoing cross-Government
review into this complex area will offer comprehensive findings across the whole criminal
justice system, and I look forward to its completion.</p>
