	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/07/2015 answer text The Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) provides a range of support to bereaved families after the murder of a British National abroad, but does not normally offer financial assistance. We do however provide funding to specialist external partners, Lucie Blackman Trust and Victim Support, who can provide practical support to bereaved families. This help takes many forms, but can include securing financial help. answering member constituency Rochford and Southend East answering member printed James Duddridge question first answered 13/07/2015 14:04:48 answering member 1559 label Biography information for Sir James Duddridge

The latter, reporting to the Ministry of Justice, has received 18 applications related to fatalities since its introduction, on 27 November 2012, and has paid £228,807 across eight successful claims, with seven claims still in process. The Foreign and Commonwealth Office does not provide compensation to the families of British nationals murdered abroad, but does provide advice when there is a relevant local compensation scheme in the country concerned. answering member constituency Rochford and Southend East answering member printed James Duddridge question first answered 13/07/2015 14:09:38 answering member 1559 label Biography information for Sir James Duddridge
