Jim Shannon

Democratic Unionist Party — Strangford

Speaking in the House of Commons on 23 March 2026

Debate

Court and Tribunal Transcripts

Contribution

I thank the hon. Gentleman for introducing the debate; he is absolutely right to underline these issues. He has given a number of examples of where the process has fallen down because evidence could not get to the victim—I always focus on victims, as I know he does. Is he aware of any cases or examples where, because of not being able to get the evidence, and the victim not being able to ascertain all the necessary information, cases have fallen and justice has not been delivered?
