This was a qualitative evaluation which explored witness and practitioner views and experiences of section 28 to understand whether the provision was working as intended.</p><p>Ministry of Justice analysts are currently scoping an impact analysis of section 28 which will give us further qualitative data on if the measure influences the outcomes and delivery in these cases or impacts on the functioning of the courts overall.</p><p>The Ministry of Justice currently holds limited quantitative data on the use of special measures in rape cases, however we expect this to improve following the rollout of the Common Platform, a digital case management system which will be able to record special measure applications. As such we are currently unable to publish data on the number or proportion of rape cases that used special measures. However, on the criminal justice delivery dashboard we have published data which shows 433 witnesses in adult rape cases gave evidence using section 28 between January 2021 and December 2022.</p> answering member constituency Charnwood answering member printed Edward Argar question first answered 20/07/2023 09:48:19 answering member 4362 label Biography information for Edward Argar
