In July 2011 we published the Review into the Needs of Families Bereaved by Homicide by Louise Casey (then Victims\u2019 Commissioner). She made a wide range of recommendations. Since then we have worked closely with victims and victims\u2019 organisations and the report\u2019s findings have played a critical role in informing our approach to ensuring that families get the help they need.<\/p>
<\/p>
This includes plans to implement a victims law to put into statute the right of the victim to tell a court how a crime has affected them, providing families of homicide victims with a copy of the judge\u2019s sentencing remarks following the trial, and funding a dedicated national Homicide Service with more than £2million a year to support those affected by homicide at home and abroad.<\/p>
