answer text <p>The Government recognises that sexual violence affects women from all communities across the UK. These are devastating crimes, and we are committed to ensuring that every victim has access to the specialist support they need, and that everything is done to bring offenders to justice. We want every report of rape to be treated seriously from the point of disclosure, every victim to be treated with dignity and every investigation and prosecution to be conducted thoroughly and professionally.</p><p> </p><p>Our cross-Government violence against women and girls (VAWG) strategy recognises that some sectors of society, such as Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic (BAME) communities, can experience additional barriers to accessing support.</p><p> </p><p>We have pledged increased funding of £100 million through to 2020 to support our commitment to tackling VAWG, including protecting funding to 85 Rape Support Centres and a new £17m VAWG Service Transformation Fund.</p><p> </p><p>This increased funding and our support for local areas to improve commissioning will help to ensure that the needs of BAME victims are met through specialist support.</p>
