answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/12/2014 answer text <p>Under this Government more money than ever before is being raised from offenders specifically to help victims of crime. This is on top of a range measures introduced since 2010 to ensure victims improve their experience of the CJS. Last year the revamped Victims’ Code was issued to ensure people receive more support when reporting a crime – knowing what will happen from the moment they report a crime to the end of a trial and beyond, as well as who to demand that help from if it is not been offered up.</p><p> </p><p>Next year, victims’ rights to tell the court how their crime has affected them will be set out in statute; a new nationwide Victims’ Information Service will be set up to ensure better information and support; and millions of pounds will be invested in improving the court experience.</p><p> </p><p>Crucially, we will also develop plans to require advocates to undergo specialist training before taking part in sexual abuse or rape trials, which will make going to court easier and less distressing for victims.</p><p> </p><p>The Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA) does not have figures for the number of applications received or rejected by type of injury. CICA pay awards based on injury descriptions, from the Criminal Injuries Compensation Scheme's 'Tariff of Injuries', these are recorded once CICA have assessed someone as eligible to receive the compensation payable for that injury.</p><p> </p><p>CICA can only produce figures based on awards paid.
