Victims and Courts BillContribution
48: Schedule 2, page 22, line 6, leave out from “in” to end of line 13 and insert “Schedule 6A.”
Member’s explanatory statement
This amendment broadens the cohort to whom Section 35 (victims’ rights to make representations and receive information) of the Domestic Violence, Crime and Victims Act 2004 applies to include any victims listed in Schedule 6A. It also probes the rationale behind the three part categorisation of crimes in Schedule 6A.
