	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/06/2023 answer text <p>Since September 2022, when we completed the rollout of pre-recorded cross-examination (Section 28) for victims of sexual and modern slavery offences in all Crown Courts in England and Wales, we have completed a process evaluation of the provision. The process evaluation, published on gov.uk on 3 April 2023, explored if the section 28 provision was working as intended and if any improvements were required. The evaluation did not examine the impact of section 28, therefore it did not compare the impact of pre-recorded versus live evidence.</p> answering member constituency Charnwood answering member printed Edward Argar question first answered 07/06/2023 08:44:27 answering member 4362 label Biography information for Edward Argar
