The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) has taken a number of steps to improve its prosecution of all strands of hate crime.<\/p>

The CPS is prosecuting and convicting more defendants of hate crime than ever before. In 2015/16, the CPS completed 15,442 hate crime prosecutions, an increase of 704 on the previous year. The conviction rate also improved to 83.2% in 2015/16 an increase from 82.9% the previous year.<\/p>

The CPS Annual Report and Accounts 2016/17 shows that the proportion of cases where the CPS was successful in achieving uplifted sentences for hate crime perpetrators has increased dramatically. The proportion rose from 33.8% in 2015/16, to 52.2% in 2016/17 \u2013 reaching 58.2% in the final quarter.<\/p>

The CPS has delivered mandatory face to face disability hate crime training and racially and religiously aggravated hate crime training and is in the process of developing homophobic, biphobic and transphobic hate crime training to support prosecutors to more effectively deal with hate crime cases.<\/p>

The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) has taken a number of steps to improve its prosecution of all strands of hate crime. Specifically they have delivered mandatory face to face disability hate crime training for all prosecutors to deal more effectively with disability hate crime cases.<\/p>

As a result, the CPS is prosecuting, and convicting, more defendants of disability hate crime than ever before. In 2015-16, the CPS completed 941 disability hate crime prosecutions, an increase of 275 on the previous year.<\/p>

The proportion of successfully completed prosecutions with an announced and recorded sentence uplift increased to 11.9% from 5.4% the previous year.<\/p>

Recovering the proceeds of crime is a one of the SFO\u2019s strategic objectives. The SFO is committed to using all tools available to it in conducting its proceeds of crime work, and to ensuring that confiscation orders (arising from the cases it prosecutes) are satisfied in full. The SFO has a specialist Proceeds of Crime and International Assistance Division, whose work includes restraint, confiscation and enforcement, civil recovery, and money laundering investigations and prosecutions.<\/p>

<\/p>

A detailed breakdown of the SFO\u2019s performance in recovering the proceeds of crime over the last five years is published on its website at: https://www.sfo.gov.uk/about-us/<\/a>.<\/p>

<\/p>

In 2016-17, £25.4m of financial orders, compensation orders and civil recovery orders were obtained and over £20m was actually recovered in respect of previous orders obtained by the SFO. At present the recovery rate for confiscation orders made in the last four financial years is 81%.<\/p>

<\/p>

The value of outstanding confiscation (current order amount)[1] orders as of 3rd July 2017, including interest, in which the SFO has the lead enforcement role is £144,952,036. The total interest in respect of these orders is £50,294,045 and the net amount outstanding is £94,657,991. Most of the net outstanding amount (88%) relates to just four out of 22 current orders.<\/p>

The SFO estimate that their current realistic recoverable amount is between £10 - £12 million.[2] The amount that is currently assessed as unrecoverable comprises in the main hidden assets, unrecovered tainted gifts to associates, assets subject to third party claims or overseas assets.<\/p>

In murder cases involving an acquittal, the National Standards of Support, which were published in January 2017 between the voluntary organisation Justice After Acquittal, the CPS and the police, will be followed.<\/p>

These require the CPS and police to each conduct a case review, considering the evidence in the case, how the evidence was presented during the trial and whether anything could have been done differently. Further, there will also be an on-going police review of acquittal cases, held every two years with any new evidence / developments being submitted to the CPS as appropriate.<\/p>

Following a decision not to charge a suspect with murder or any other homicide offence, victims\u2019 families can request a review of the CPS decision by an independent specialist lawyer in accordance with the CPS Victims\u2019 Right to Review scheme.<\/p>

The Crown Prosecution Service<\/strong> (CPS) does not keep central records of the status of suppliers and is therefore unable to verify if any contracts have been awarded to (a) charities and (b) social enterprises in each year since 2010.
