tabling member constituency	Huddersfield
tabling member printed	Mr Barry Sheerman
uin	2426
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/01/2020 answer text <p>In accordance with the principle of open justice, defendants in criminal cases are not granted automatic anonymity, for any offence, if they are over the age of 18. The court has the power to grant discretionary reporting restrictions to prevent the name of the defendant being published in exceptional circumstances; this would be considered if revealing the identity of the defendant would pose a real risk to the administration of justice. The Government is not considering granting defendants automatic anonymity.</p><p> </p><p>However, suspects who have not yet been charged with a criminal offence should not be routinely named. The identity of a suspect should only be released if there is a compelling reason to do so, for example if they pose a risk to the public.</p><p> </p><p>The majority of support services for victims of crime are provided or commissioned by Police and Crime Commissioners through grant funding provided by the Ministry of Justice. This includes services to support the bereaved families of victims of road crime.</p> answering member constituency Croydon South answering member printed Chris Philp question first answered 17/01/2020 11:46:45 answering member 4503 label Biography information for Chris Philp
