A full Impact Assessment, setting out the cost across Criminal Justice System of the proposed bail reforms, was drawn up as part of the consultation process in late 2014 and was updated in the light of that consultation in March 2015. The Impact Assessment was updated again and published with the Policing and Crime Bill in February 2016; a copy of the latest version is available online at:<\/p>

This will mean victims of crime can give evidence from somewhere they feel safe.<\/p> The Ministry of Justice also funds the delivery of the court-based Witness Service, delivered by Citizens Advice at all criminal courts in England and Wales. The Service has developed an enhanced package of support to vulnerable and intimidated witnesses (including victims). This enhanced level of support includes both support at court and pre-trial support and an outreach service offering home visits or meetings, in advance of trial, at Citizens Advice offices or another neutral and appropriate location, and meeting the witness outside the court and accompanying them inside. This enhanced service is being rolled out nationally and will be available in all areas by end of April 2016.<\/p> The court can impose any bail condition necessary to ensure that a defendant does not interfere with a witness. If a bail condition is broken, this will have consequences for the offender, including the possibility of a remand into custody.<\/p>"}
