Victims of crime legislation

Summary

Tony McLoughlin asks when the criminal justice (victims of crime) Bill will reach the House; the Taoiseach says it is advanced and likely for the next session.

Despite the Government's best intentions with regard to improving the rights and protections offered to victims of crime, many people still feel they are not sufficiently dealt with or supported. In this context, when can we expect the criminal justice (victims of crime) Bill to be brought before the House? Anyone who has been a victim of crime in the past knows that we need to support people much better in their time of need.

That legislation is very well advanced, so it will probably be in the next session.
